Follow the Advent Sheep Trail

A long time ago in Bethlehem, angels visited some shepherds to tell them that Jesus had been born in a stable. The shepherds went to find Jesus, with their sheep following them. But some of the sheep got lost! Amazingly, they have turned up in shops in Beverley town centre! Can you find their names so they can be called back to their masters?

The (knitted) sheep can be found in shops between Saturday and Wednesday Markets from 1st to 22nd December. They have tags round their necks with their names. All you have to do is record their names on the entry form which you can pick up from your primary school and other outlets or from  office@beverleybaptist.com. Entries received by December 22nd will be in with a chance of winning a prize and keeping one of the sheep.

The trail is being organised by Beverley Baptist Church, whose Minister, Phil Palmer, said: “We hope this will connect children to the events of the Christmas story, enable families to have fun together, and encourage people to shop in Beverley in the run up to Christmas.  We have been overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of retailers to take part in the trail, and our team of knitters have been working hard to get as many sheep as possible ready to be hidden.”
