Sundaze

St Andrew's Church Halberton
Sundaze is for everyone
Sundaze is for children and adults to "do church" in a fun way together with family and friends, this is along the lines of Messy Church but has its own identity .
We offer a fun, relaxed, family-centred approach to worship, based on the corp values of hospitality, creativity and celebration.
It provides a fantastic way for adults and children to come together in friendship and fellowship.
What happens at Sundaze
Hospitality
In the crossover between the traditional church service and the start of Sundaze there is a tea, coffee, squash and something to eat.
This time enables us to meet together as one community between to very different styles of church.
Creativity
The theme for the morning is introduced - which may include watching a short film. Then everyone spends about 45 minutes enjoying crafts, activities and games which are linked to the theme.
Celebration
At the end of the activities everyone gathers together for a time of celebration, with bible stories, a talk and prayer, finishing by 12.15 pm.
Special Sundaze Events
Special Sundaze events occur around Easter, Summer Holidays and Christmas. Photos of past events can be found in the Photo Gallery
A Team Approach
Sundaze is organised and supported by both the Parish and Methodist Churches in Halberton.
The leadership and volunteers are members of the local churches, supported and guided by the Children and Families Worker.
