The expressions on the children’s faces said it all. It was evident they were enjoying the games, which were both interesting and original, at East Antrim Christian Endeavour Union’s annual Fun Day. This was well supported and it was hosted in First Carrickfergus Presbyterian Church’s hall.   

The Leaders, drawn from the participating Societies, had an equally good time. Six teams gave of their best with The Heroes edging forward as winners.

The success of the afternoon was down to hard work and the organisational skills of Mrs. Lynda Anderson and First Carrick’s Children’s Ministry Co-ordinator, Mr. Robert Penney.

In the middle of the fun and activity there was a welcome break for refreshments and an opportunity to make a purchase at the CE requisite stall.

It was a special treat for the children to have not one but two CE Presidents in their midst.                                   

Gillian Ferguson, East Antrim Union’s President conducted the short opening devotions, making reference to her Presidential theme, “ Light of the World”, based on Matthew chapter 5, verse 14.          

Irish Union President, Paul Nesbitt conducted the closing devotions and spoke about his Presidential theme, “Shine from the inside out” based on 1 Samuel 16 verse 7. Paul wants Jesus to shine in the children’s lives and for them to shine for Jesus.
