Jo, now working from home herself, says ‘Over the four days that Bake Off had been due to run, we instead ran a two-hour baking and online chat session for the young people and holiday leaders to access online at home. 

'We emailed a recipe booklet and shopping list of ingredients to parents. Then I created accompanying videos using my phone to film myself cooking each recipe in my kitchen, which I edited on my computer. It was a bit of a learning curve, but actually turned out to be easier than I thought! 

'Each session included a biblical theme to ponder. One afternoon when we made cupcake sheep, we shared how Jesus said he was the good shepherd and came to give life in all its fullness. We asked the children to think about how that compares with the common perception that being a Christian is about following lots of rules.' 

After their baking, the children joined one another in an online chat room at a set time using a computer or other device with a camera. They showed off their culinary creations and discussed the Bible theme of the day. The holiday leaders shared a bit about why they follow Jesus and what he means to them.
