Children’s Church meets during the 10am service on Sunday mornings during term-time. After the first hymn, the children go to the Church Room behind the Church for worship and activities appropriate to their age group. The time of worship includes prayers, a song and a Bible story. It is still and reflective and for all ages together.

The activities following the worship include drama, artwork, creative activities and simple games. These are lively and as much fun as possible. We aim to provide something for all age groups, with different activities for 2-7 year olds and 8+ year olds. There are also toys and books for toddlers.

Before we return to Church, we come back together to share what we’ve been doing and say a final prayer. We return to Church in time to go to the altar rail with the rest of the congregation to receive a blessing or communion.

Parents/carers are welcome to come to the Church Room with their children (under 4 year olds need to be accompanied by an adult); or they can stay in the Church service, or leave their children in our care and pick them up at 11.10am. The people who lead the children’s work have all been police (CRB) checked.

If you would like to know more, please contact Annie Barker, our Children and Families Worker, on (01865) 554934. She would be happy to arrange a time to meet you.
