Shal Home

Shal Home is a care home for mentally ill patients. We are very priviledged to be able to visit them every Friday to share God's word with them. We had special celebrations with them both for Christmas & New Year's Day.

The Christmas Celebration

The residents of the home who were able to join us as we started off the day

                             Christmas carol singing!

A dance performance by Dewi, one of the residents in the home

Another very special performance by Benjamin (also a resident of the home), singing 'Sinner man'

Next, handicraf time! Make a paper heart & write the words 'Jesus Loves Me' on it.

                Now onto serious stuff: The gospel talk

The important questions : Who is Jesus & why did He come?

After that, we treated them to snacks; special Christmas cookies baked by Joanne : )

              Ended the celebration with a group photo. 

New Year's Day Celebration

  A great song to start off the day : God is so good! Here they are singing the words "He took my sins"

Singing "Now I am free", what a great way to remember the work that Jesus has done for us on the cross!

Reading the bible together, the passage for the day was Hebrews 10:19-25

The first application of the passage in the form of a game: Charades (things you see when you look up)

Dialogue illustrating our 1st point of the bible reading: Look up to Jesus

Next game illustrating the 2nd point of the bible reading: Balancing a book on your head and walking forward : )

Dialogue 2: Look forward to the eternal life that we have because of Jesus

           Finally, sharing snacks with them : )
