CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:6
We love running activities and events - most of which are listed below - but our real passion is for helping parents & carers to disciple their own children at home. Below you can find our ever-growing "at home" section which is full of great resources for use at home with your own children and household.
Our regular children/families events
On Sundays
-
DJs (Disciples of Jesus) - a group especially for school years 1-6 during the 11o'clock service. DJs is a fun-packed time of discipleship-training for children.
-
Creche+ - for children aged Reception Year and preschoolers. Creche+ is much more than a place for your little ones to hang out during the sermon! There's songs, stories and prayer time for the little ones and their parents/carers are welcome to stay if they wish.
-
On the 1st Sunday of each month we hold our "church family meal" - Holy Communion - during the 11o'clock service. There will be a craft organised for kids during the talk.
-
Children's Cinema with Ice Cream
-
We will soon be reopening a designated area for babies in the main church building so parents/carers have a comfy spot to be with their very little ones while they are safe to wriggle, kick and crawl.
-
Sometimes we stay after the service and enjoy time together at our ‘Picnic & Play’ event.
Midweek
-
Stay & Play takes place from 9:30am to 11am every Tuesday in term time.
-
We also run a few other occasional events and services with families in mind.
