Open the Book in Portishead

Volunteers from GVC join together with lots of other volunteers from churches in Portishead to head into six schools around Portishead to take Open the Book Assemblies. 

Open the Book (OtB) is a project which offers primary school children an opportunity to hear key Bible stories, from a team of Christians from local churches, who present the stories during assemblies/acts of Collective Worship. Each presentation takes around 10–15 minutes and can be incorporated into a wider school assembly, or can stand alone. It is a three-year rolling programme with an additional, but optional year of material based on Christian Values for schools.

Due to Covid we have not been able to go into the schools...
Please pray that the team will be able to continue to visit soon.
