Full house for revenge of the Slugs and Bugs

Thanks to Julie Croydon for this good news piece. Ed


Creepy crawlies don’t usually get a good press, but 3:30 on Sunday 17th is their chance to wreak revenge on the mammals.

A band called Slugs & Bugs from Nashville is holding an interactive Family Concert followed by a hot dog supper. St James’ in Ryde invited them to the Island, and booked Grace Church for the event.

So many people wanted tickets that it had to be moved to the George Street Centre, home of Ryde Baptist Church.

‘Silliness is next to godliness
Randall Goodgame, founder of Slugs & Bugs says they ‘make music that the whole family will love – because silliness is next to godliness’.

Ryde Baptist Church is so delighted to host them that a member has underwritten the hire cost. These knitted creatures, including Wally Bee, are on display in Chatters Café, in the George Street Centre.

The church in Ryde is passionate about providing fun ways for children to enjoy learning about Jesus.

This year’s Holiday Club will be held during the last week of July at Ryde Baptist, free for 5 – 12 year olds.
