We hope this finds you all well and enjoying the start of another wonderful year with your club. The theme for this year is “Prayer – No worries” and it discusses a “do” and “don’t” command. Don’t worry; do pray! Sadly, sometimes we do just the opposite of what God desires—worrying instead of praying, being anxious instead of bringing our requests to Him.

God always knows what is best for His children. In His infinite wisdom and boundless love, He gives repeated instruction in His Word that we must pray. Prayer protects us from anxiety and eliminates worry. We will experience a sense of peace when we bring our requests to God in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving.

This theme is a complete pack which we hope will help to guide you and your club through the theme for this year. The pack enclosed contains all the resources you will need to plan and present the theme, including material supply lists for each section, devotions, banner design, games and much more. The aim of this pack is to help make your preparation for the theme as easy as possible and achievable even for those of you who have very limited resources and help. We also wanted it to be adaptable so you can individualise the theme to suit you and your club. So please feel free to be creative and resource other relevant material and use as much or as little of the support material provided as you like.

The pack includes the following:

• Leaders Theme Resource Booklet (This includes a resource section with the resources needed for presenting the theme)
• Theme Work Booklet (Log Book)
• Devotional Resource Booklet
• Additional Resource Booklet, which includes:
  • Theme Banner Design (etc)
  • Craft Ideas
  • Games and Skits

Feel free to print as many copies of these as you wish. If you would prefer we print them for you, we can provide that for the cost of the printing and postage.

We hope you all enjoy the theme this year and as always we would love your feedback to help us refine and prepare the next theme for 2021. Thank you for all the hard work you do and the time you take to share your love of the Lord with the children in your club.
