Children and young people
|
Our vision is for
|
Children are an integral part of our fellowship and join the beginning of morning services before going to their groups. We currently have two groups for children on Sunday.
Sunday Club for 3 - 11 year olds
Lasers for 11+ - 18 year olds
Infants and toddlers may remain in church throughout the service. There is a crèche corner with quiet toys and space for carers to sit with them.
The children have their own mission statement which is:
To help people know about Jesus by prayer, information, being their friend and showing God’s love.
Prayer Power
All children and young people are invited to come along to Prayer Power which is held from 4 - 6pm on Thursday each week. Here they can talk to God in their own way - spoken prayer, balloon prayers, graffiti wall prayer are just some of the ways they do this.
71:17
71:17 is our twice monthly revamped youth club for those aged 11 - 16. This on the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month from 7.30- 9.30pm . Young people can enjoy a range of games like table tennis, table football (and the real thing outside when the weather is fine), pool, dance mats, music, karaoke, makeovers, T-shirt printing and other craft activities. For details about planned activities, how to join and our code of conduct go to the 71:17 page. You will find a form there for giving us your views on-line.
