Holiday Club day four

Theme for today was 'substitute' and the reading from Luke was the description of the betrayal by Judas and the arrest of Jesus. The DVD focussed on the death of Jesus with Flabby Lagoon interviewing Joseph of Arimathea.
We refrained from giving the children an exposition of the penal substitution theory of the atonement and simply told the familiar story. The worksheet from the Scripture Union material also looked forward to what happened next and tomorrow's theme is the resurrection.
It was a good morning and it passed very quickly. At the end of the morning there was only a very brief time for the usual jokes and letters.

joke of the day - what do you call a woman who stands between the goalposts? Answer - Annette.( I must tell my wife the joke - she will love it.)

second place joke of the day - what do you call a budgie who has flown in to the blender? ( answer - shredded tweet).

Perhaps I could add another joke - last night's performance by Rangers!
