Hi. We hope you enjoy catching up!
Welcome and thank you for joining us. If this is your first time at The Oak, hello, we hope you enjoy our time together today.
Our plan today is to start by worshipping together (song words will be on-screen). After that, there'll be a time of prayer and news, followed by a short talk.
There are materials on this page for our 0-3's (The Nest), Preschool to Year 6 (Treehouse) and Year 7+ (Oak Youth) to help the whole family grow together.
Happy Sunday, see you at 10.30am!

The NestGod’s Wonderful World Week 10
0-3's
This term in the Nest we are learning about the world around us to help us remember to be thankful for all the wonderful places God has created. This week we are looking at the Woodland!
Verse ‘I will give thanks to You, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all Your wonderful deeds.’ Psalm 9v1
Book Five Minute Bible Stories by Fiona Boon & Hayley Down (pages 71-91) (see link here). Tamsin, one of our fantastic Nest team, has recorded a video of this term’s book including a Makaton signed story and song (see link here).
Songs Who’s the king of the jungle - Creator God - If I were a butterfly - Praise the Lord - When I look (see the videos here) - Father God (to the tune of Old MacDonald, lyrics below, have a go at making up more verses with your child about other things you can find in the Woodland).
Father God made the world, E-I-E-I-O,
And in the Woodland He made a bird, E-I-E-I-O
With a tweet tweet here, and a tweet tweet there etc.
Activity Make collages with Woodland items such as leaves, seeds, flowers etc. If you are able to, you could go on a walk in a Woodland to collect these items and use the time to talk about all the special things that can be found there - we can thank God for the wonderful Woodland.
Either stick these items onto a piece of card with glue or tape. Or if you have sticky back plastic you can let your child stick the items onto a sheet of this. Once they are finished you can then add a second sheet of sticky back plastic to the other side to seal their creation (these look lovely hung up in a window so the light can shine through them). See example here which suggests using tape to attach the sticky back plastic to the table to help it stay still while your child creates their picture.
TreehouseYOUTH TAKEOVER - Miracles - Jesus Heals 10 Lepers
Preschool - Year 6
YOUTH TAKEOVER
Today we are learning more about the Life of Jesus and the miracles he did. Today we are going to find out about a time when he healed 10 lepers!
Game: You have 1 minute to wrap someone in toilet roll. Just for fun!
You can find out story in Luke 17:11-19
Check out the video!
Questions;
What did you think about the story?
What did you learn about Jesus from this story?
Why do they think only one man said thank you? Weren’t the rest grateful?
Worship:
Activities:
- Jesus loves a thankful heart – Can you use the plasters to make a card, or a piece of artwork. You should have 10 plasters in your packs to represent the 10 lepers.
- Try to memorise this verse.
He came back, shouting praises to God.
Luke 17:15
Can you give it some actions? Can you colour it in? Maybe you can write it in big bubble writing and stick it somewhere in your house to remind you to shout praise to God.
Why not share what you've been up to on the Treehouse Parents Facebook Group?Oak YouthHow can I be filled with Holy Spirit?
Year 7+
Rach will be leading this week along with Jackie & they can’t wait to share more about Holy Spirit with you! You might like to prepare for this weeks session by reflecting on some verses that talk about Holy Spirit - Romans 5:5, Ephesians 5:18 and Acts 2. Acts is littered with examples of people experiencing the power of Holy Spirit. Why not try reading the whole book?
