John the Baptist
This Sunday 5 March 2023 is Messy Church again!
We’ll meet from 4:30 – 6:30pm at Ivanhoe Uniting Church, Seddon St, Ivanhoe.
Our story will be about John the Baptist, a cousin of Jesus. John the Baptist was a real wild man, who lived in the desert and ate wild locusts and honey. His role was to prepare the way for Jesus.
There will be lots of activities, crafts and games, our celebration time and a shared meal. It will be great to be together again.
