🌟 Abbey Kids: The Parable of the Talents 🌟

Join us at 9.30am on Sunday 4 October as we explore one of Jesus’ parables about using the gifts and blessings God has given us.

In the Parable of the Talents, three servants are entrusted with different amounts of money while their master is away. When he returns, two have used what they were given wisely and made it grow, while one has hidden his away.

What does this teach us about the gifts God gives each of us, and how we can use them for good? Come along and find out!

🎶 Singing
🎥 A great video
🎲 Games
🎨 A fun craft activity – we’ll be making beautiful heart boxes filled with treasure!

Teenage helpers are always very welcome too.

We’re looking forward to seeing you there! 💛
