Clonsilla Sunday Club

Welcome to Sunday Club at St. Mary's Clonsilla. Here we teach children in two age groups; 4 to 6 and 7 to confirmation age. We meet in our 'purpose fitted' unit outside the church each Sunday during our 10a.m. Service.

At present there are five leaders, who teach on a rota basis in pairs, with the aid of five rotating junior leaders.

We encourage the children to participate in Table Quizs, Family and Special Services. Christmas time finds the children busy making gifts for everyone in the congregation! They have made pot pouri sachets, bookmarkers and sweet bags. For a Festive service, the children are involved in making crafts to decorate the church. Each month at our Family Services, the children are included in the service by reading and collecting.

We have an ongoing project which involves saving our weekly Sunday Club collection money. Someone connected with our parish works in South Africa working with orphaned boys. When Lent is over, money will be sent to the boys for them to buy something that would be a treat for them, such as sweets. The children in Sunday Club have pictures on their wall to remind them where their money is going to.

We also organise outings during the year, i.e. pantomime, zoo, park, bowling etc.

Thank you for visiting our web page, please feel free to visit our Sunday Club any Sunday.
