Holiday Clubs:
Connor Diocese – Cabin Fever Holiday Bible Club.
This online club will have a science theme led by ‘The Professors,’ and will link into the story of Noah, who must have suffered extreme cabin fever in that ark for a year!!
Jill Hamilton, Connor Children’s Project Development Officer, said: “If you have suffered a bit of cabin fever yourself over the last weeks, you will be able to identify with the theme!”
The material will be ready for early August and will be premiered on YouTube. Watch out for more details.

Down and Dromore Diocese – Forky’s Great Escape
You can organise this Holiday Bible Club in whatever way suits best as all the elements we’ve prepared are separate – talks, reflection time, quiz, prayer activities, craft activities etc.
Run it as a one–off HBC or on 6 weeks of Sundays (or week days) the last being a drive–in cinema where the families watch toy Story 4 with treats and an epilogue.
Coming to a screen near you at the end of June!
