Children and Youth
SEEDS
On a Sunday morning, the Seeds group cares for children aged 0-3. With simple, faithful teaching about God and us, catchy songs, and plenty of toddler toys, the Seeds group is a great, safe place to leave your baby or toddler. It also provides a friendly space for parents to stay with their young babies if they wish (e.g. for feeding during the service).
.
JAM
JAM is made up of age-divided groups for children aged 3 to 11 years old on a Sunday morning. Normally the children will leave the main church service at about 11 o’clock for fellowship, fun, engaging age-related Bible teaching, songs and prayers!
Our JAM leaders are great at building friendships with the children, helping them to feel safe and loved, and work hard week-to-week to support parents as they “tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might, and the wonders that he has done” (Ps 78:4). All our leaders are DBS-checked, and trained in Safeguarding children.
Please contact the church office if you would like more details.
YOUTH
For young people in secondary school there are groups each week as follows:
- Tuesday Evening, 7.30pm-9pm: Yr7-9’s and Yr10-13s meet at church for friendship, fun, and a time of study and discussion, looking at relevant topics and bits of the Bible together.
- Sunday Morning: roughly alternate weeks, the Yr 7-9s leave the main 10.30am service to chat, enjoy some refreshments, and study the same passage as the adults in a more interactive discussion format.
- Sunday Afternoon: similarly, roughly alternate weeks, the 10s-15s leave the main 4pm service for their own age-specific group studying the same passage as the adults.
- Sunday Evening, 8.15pm-9.30pm: a number of our Yr 10-13s join in with the evening service. After the service is finished, the Yr 10-13s take over the upstairs for social and fellowship time, enjoying some food and drink, chat, and a variety of games.
