LIONS & LAMBS

I received the following from Evelyn Sweerts of the Anglican parish and am happy to advertise it. Fr Ed.

Lions and Lambs… and Lattes!

Are you

  • Looking for a coffee morning that offers something extra?
  • New to Luxembourg and eager to meet other parents of young children?
  • Keen for your baby or pre-schooler to learn a bit about Jesus?

Lions and Lambs could be for you! On Thursday 18th September the Anglican Church’s group for parents and their little ones is re-starting for the new school year (baby bumps through to pre-schoolers are all very welcome). We will sing some child-friendly action songs together; read an age-appropriate New Testament story; and do a fun and simple craft or game. We give special attention to important moments in the Church Year. There will be plenty of time for snacks and free play for the little ones, and (more importantly?) coffee and fellowship for the parents.

Our aim is to be Christ-centred in a creative, inclusive and joyful way – not least because that is what Jesus was (is!) like. Whether telling a story about a banquet to which everyone was invited – especially those no one else thought should be – or rebuking the disciples who tried to keep the children away from him, Jesus made it clear that everyone is invited to the party! Young, old, rich, poor, male, female, good, bad, popular or not – everyone was welcome.

We will meet alternately in Claudia’s home in Rollingergrund and Julia’s home in Schuttrange. Both have good bus connections, and we hope in this way to be easily accessible to all who are interested in joining us. Get-togethers are on Thursday mornings from 9.30-11am during Luxembourgish school term time. You are welcome to come to both or to choose the one that is most convenient for you.

Lions and Lambs is open to those of all: you don’t have to be part of our Sunday morning worship to be welcome. We hope you’ll join us!
