“Open the Book” is 20 Years Old

2019 marks 20 years since “Open the Book” first started. A group of volunteers attended Primary School assemblies in Bedford in 1999 to read and act out stories using the Lion Storyteller Bible. It is now a nationwide success which has been giving Primary School children the opportunity to hear key Bible stories from teams of Christians from their local churches for two decades.
There will be an event on 18 October in Woking with Bob Hartman and Bishop Jo to mark this impressive milestone, including a short celebratory service followed by afternoon tea. More information will follow as plans unfold but you may want to save the date!
