Easter possibly the most significant event in history? Over the last 15 years I’ve been involved in a local church initiative where primary school pupils come into the church for a presentation that has been incredibly well received by both pupils and staff. Schools are into LOTC (Learning Outside The Classroom) and here is one example. Todate around 30 other locations around the country have started something similar from Altrincham to Woodley and Gravesend to Glasgow and this remains the most significant thing I’ve been involved with in Scripture Union. If you think this might be of use for your church and local school(s) then do check out these websites and feel free to contact us for more information.
Over the years we have had many visitors come along to observe this and many have then go on to do something similar in their area. Also, I’m sure other areas would also welcome visitors. We`set aside a week here and it is is 8-12 March and we run two sessions each day.
