Open the Book

Open the Book – Can you help?

In association with the Bible Society, Open the Book is an exciting storytelling project where Bible stories are shared with children in a way that is fun, interactive and memorable. We are hoping to put together a storytelling team, who will go into Greenfield and Silsoe schools once a month to present a 10-15 minute scripted bible story.

Don’t worry, no learning of lines needed! To register your interest, or find out more  details, please email Jo Holt jo_holt@sky.com

Alpha Course

First meeting – Wednesday 22 January 2025 at 7pm

Curious About Faith? Try Alpha

Alpha is a series that explores the basics of the Christian faith in a welcoming, open and friendly environment.

It’s free and there’s no pressure or follow-up.

Each session is held on a Wednesday evening at 7pm at the Vicarage in Silsoe where we start with a meal. Following that we look at  different topics on Christianity and have time to chat through any thoughts.

You can say anything you like or nothing at all.  No matter your background or beliefs, everyone is welcome.

If you are interested in joining the Alpha course, please let Rev Simon know on RevSimon@3churches.uk or 01525 643478
