Monday 12th December was a special stepping stones afternoon as it was the cre8 for Christmas day. In total we had 7 toddlers with two younger ones there as well. The stepping stones group made some fantastic crafts and they all took part in the telling of the Christmas story. They also got a special gift to take home with them as well.

All the mothers and carers also hade fun chatting and making their own crafts as well. I hope they all have a very merry christmas

REFRESH CHRISTMAS PARTY!!!!!!!

Tuesday 13th December Refresh communty church had a christmas party!!! It was such a fab night and many people turned up to have a bring and share meal and many chirstmas games. Everyone also brought a secret santa pressie worth £1. A very special christmas elf came around with the bag of presents and handed them out as santa couldn't be there ha ha ha.

A huge thank you to everyone who made it down as we had a wonderful night and it couldn't have been done without all of you xx

what a year

Hello everyone. What a fab first few months I've had with the grafted project. I've done the year out with grafted this year and its allowed me to experience all aspects of the projected and allowed me to see God at work in all sorts of ways.

Cant wait to see what the new year has in store for me.

things to look out for include:

spree's

new wine

taking deeper to Soul Survivor

and moving back to Bath

Bowling and meal

On the 14th December it was that time again for the day out for the Grafted Christmas meal except this year we done it a bit different!!!!

This year we decided to go bowling and then for a lunch time meal. Everyone seemed to have a fab time from bowling, winning surfs, secret santa presents and such an amazing meal, to me the day couldn't get any better. Three of the lads dressed up in santa outfits, can you guess who they are???

Grafted Walk

Last week on the 7th December Paul Little, Paul Smith, Elaine Little, Julie Thomson, Jodi Wakefield, Mary Mitchell, Jake Little, Luke Hubball and two dogs walked from Julie's land to Keilder. We all had a fab time on that walk which also included people throwing snowballs and certain people tackling others into the snow. We all had such a fab time that it is a shame to see the snow go ha ha ha.

Afterwards we all returned to Julie's for some georgous sandwiches!!!!

Merry Christmas! Julie's update...

May you know God's blessing this Christmas time and throughout 2012.

Boulder Gang and Rock Solid Christmas Party today 4-6.30pm - lots of fun planned. Stepping Stones had their Cre8 4 Christmas on Monday - lovely to see 3 new children. Glitter galore and some fabulous Christmas crafts created by both parents and children.

A mad busy week - but things are slightly slowing down.. 55 Minute church on Sunday was brilliant! Jake was quiz master extraordinaire! Thanks to all who helped and who came along.

Refresh christmas Party on Tuesday night - apart from the storm we braved to get there, it was a lovely night. Next Refresh Meeting on Tuesday 20th for a Christmas reflection evening. Refresh meet again in the New Year on January 10th. Paul Little will be leading.

Grafted staff Christmas "do" yesterday - Bowling and a meal at carlisle was brilliant! Didn't know we had so many professional bowlers on the team!

and from me.... thanks to everyone who has supported Grafted over the last year, in particular the kids work and the volunteers. We have had a blast! It will be an interesting and very sad 2012 as we prepare to say goodbye to the Littles :( Exciting to see what the Lord has in store for us all though. Have a fantastic Christmas break everyone!
