Activity and prayer for use with children, at church or at home, to celebrate the New Year.

The New Year TV schedules usually feature lots of programmes looking back over the significant events of the last twelve months. In more recent years, as we have moved into the new millennium, we looked back over the last decade, the last century and the last thousand years as well. It is important to look back, to see what has been achieved, and what lessons can be learned. But it is important to look forward also, to try and plan to do better.
