Mattan's Page

Hello, my name is Mattan and since September I have lived at Bitterne Park Baptist Church.

I tried several churches before I found Bitterne Park Baptist Church. Some were draughty and cold and some just didn't seem to be the right place for me. Then I found here. It was warm and the people were very friendly and welcoming. The singing maybe could improve but they looked like they were enjoying themselves. And after the service they had cake! 

Each week I hide some where in the church and the children have to find me. It is really difficult to keep still and quiet but it's only for a short while because the children are getting very good at finding me.

I really enjoyed the Nativity on 7th December. Its nice seeing the children dressed up and telling the story how God sent his Son Jesus to be born in a stable. God gave us such a special gift that first Christmas. And what's more that gift is still available today. Amazing! 

Then just as I thought I was about to get some crumbs from mince pies the big children I think they call them adults did this play about 3 shepherds and washing your socks by night. (One of the shepherds had cold feet!

There’s no better gift to give Jesus today or any day but yourself.
