Jesus' baptism doves
Lily with doves
And, more doves, as we remember the Holy Spirit descending on Jesus at his baptism
On Sunday 10th January the children explored the story of Jesus' baptism, via Zoom due to the C-19 restriction. We heard how John the Baptist washed away the bad things people had done when we baptised them in the river. It made them clean to start again, a new beginning. When Jesus was baptised a dove appeared, another symbol of new beginnings and a sign of hope. We decided we could all use a bit of hope right now and we made doves as a sign of hope and new beginnings.
