Advent 2014

We filled the roof of St Johns with a canopy of stars. As part of this project we also made a banner, using a star chart from each sunday in advent as viewd from the front door of the church as a basis for each letter in the word STAR. The Epiphany interweave used astronomical software and a projector to recreate the sky as it would have looked like from Bethelehem around the time of the birth of Jesus. We were then able to discuss various possible ways in which Astrologers from Babylon might have interpreted these astronomical events.
