Worship at home
We are really fortunate to have an amazing clergy team at St Alphege Church. As they are unable to see the children in school or in church, the Open the Book Team have prepared some videos for us to access to worship at home. They are complete with a song with actions, story and prayer! The Open the Book team usually work with our infant school but there is no reason why younger children at the junior school can’t enjoy these videos if they want to. Our thanks go to each member of the Open the Book Team for preparing these for us:
