Let’s Go!

Our termly update is here! What have we been up to and what’s to come? Read on…

Last term was packed full of Easter fun!

We looked at the story with Fun Club across multiple weeks and celebrated with a party at the end. Check out some of their crafts above!

Christ Church put on the their yearly CSI:Easter workshop for schools to come to and Emily turned into a forensic officer as part of solving the case of the missing body.
We’ve had Easter assemblies left, right and centre as well as looking at the idea of Forgiveness this half term.

This term has also seen an increase in school interest which is great news!

 However, the current Croydon team is rapidly reaching capacity. We desperately need some more team members to take on certain roles from sending emails to visiting the schools themselves. In particular we have been asked to set up a second Fun Club and to do this we would need weekly volunteers to come along. You don’t need any qualifications, just a DBS and a willingness to get stuck in!

Email us if this of interest to you (or your church/group) and we will happily chat more!

Coming this term is an exciting development we are so pleased to be starting. Operations Forgiveness Anti-Knife Crime Workshops!

Emily is joining a team from Christ Church to start delivering these to year 6 groups around Croydon. Please be praying that we strike the perfect balance of life-changing impact to prevent knife use as well as the love and support required when working on a potentially triggering topic for some. Lets pray for the power of FORGIVENESS!

More good news…

We are so close to completing our goal in the GoFundMe!
 
Please share and donate and get us over the finishing line.

As you can see, the doors have been opening and the work is growing. As a result the resources needed to keep up need to grow as well. Whether that be time or finance or commitment to pray and advocate, the Croydon Hub welcomes it all with huge appreciation.
