Children's work

We run several groups for children; some with a community emphasis, others for young members of the church. We have a part-time, paid youth worker and a full-time Careforce youth volunteer helping us.

For information on youth groups (11-16yr olds) please see the Youth Page


SUNDAY CHURCH FOR CHILDREN

Crèche (0 yr olds)
A pleasant room with toys is available at the back of the church during the main 10.30am service. Parents can take their babies there when they wish; the service is relayed to the crèche room through a speaker system.

Toddler Play (1-2 yr olds)
This takes place during the 10.30am service, in the church hall (just next door). This group sometimes joins in with the 3-4 yr olds when appropriate.

All Stars
(3-11 yr olds)
The main Sunday group for children is called "All Stars" and takes place during the main 10.30am service.

Children join the adults in the church for the first 10 minutes of the main service and then go to church hall (just next door) for their groups.

All Stars groups are split by age:
3-4 year olds
5-7 year olds
8-11 year olds

The Alpha Course...

Do you have questions about the Christian faith?

- Can we trust the Bible?

- If God exists, why is there suffering?

- How is Jesus relevant today?

These are some of the questions which the Alpha Course seeks to tackle.

Many people have already found this 10 week Course extremely helpful, and hundreds of churches across the country are using it.

The next Alpha Course is due to start in September 2008.
