Children and young people
Discipling the church of the future right now.
We want children to discover God for themselves.

Our Sunday morning children’s and youth ministry is not about sitting quietly, doing colouring sheets, or looking at white-robbed images of a happy Jesus surrounded by woodland creatures. We believe every child has the capacity to encounter God and learn about God’s big, awesome, limitless love. We use games, stories, craft, video, and free-flow reflection activities to point children and young people towards God, and then we do what we can to help that relationship bloom into something amazing.
Tailored learning experiences for 0-5s, 5-11s, and 11+
Free-flow activities and reflections to encourage exploration (0-11s)
Relevant discussion of everyday issues and support from leaders (11+)*
Snacks provided (usually paired with good conversation)
Led by DBS-checked volunteers, so you can enjoy the main service or stay with your child (whichever you prefer)
“For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these”
Due to the Covid-19 crisis we’re shut down, but normally children’s groups (for 0-11s) run every week of the month, apart from the 1st Sunday where we host all-age services. All-age services are designed with younger children in mind. We have special music, more action and a shorter format, so families can enjoy church and worship together.
Our youth group (11+) also usually runs most Sundays of the month, but we also encourage our teenagers to join in with the main service and become a part of church life from an early age. If you want to make sure a youth group is running the week you’re coming, then just ask.
