Sunday Mornings

On Sunday mornings, children and young people stay together with the rest of the church for the first part of the service before going to their own groups where they’ll receive their own Bible teaching in an age-appropriate way. There are always people on hand to help you find the right group for your child. Details of the various groups are below…

The church teenagers (13 years old +) get together fortnightly on Friday nights during term time in someone’s home, to study the Bible, chat and maybe play some games, have food and hang out. Recently we’ve been working through the book of Romans. It’s also a great opportunity to ask and discuss questions.
