Lent
Messy Church Goes Wild
Why not take your Messy Church outdoors with one of the Messy Adventures? ‘Wild and wilderness’ explores Luke 4:1–13 and encourages us to journey with Jesus into the wilderness. Before you dive into your first Adventure, make sure you read the supporting documentation on how to use the Messy Adventures, and for inspiration for your outdoor celebrations and eating together.
