Children & Young People at All Saints

There are currently 84 children and young people under 18 registered with our various Sunday groups.

Many more enjoy the midweek toddler and baby groups and special seasonal activities. Below is a quick guide to the Childrens and Young people's activities at All Saints:

Sunday mornings

Baby Church (0 – 3s)

Baby Church takes place during 10.30am services and aims to provide a safe environment where 0 – 3s can enjoy themselves and take first steps on their journey of faith. It is run by parents and other helpers on a rota basis. A wide range of toys are available and sessions may also include music, stories and simple craft activties. Children who are old enough can enjoy a drink of water and a healthy snack.

Junior Church (3 – 11s)

Junior Church meets during the 10.30am service. Adults and children worship together for the first fifteen minutes, then the children go to other rooms for their own activities: worship, craft, Bible, prayer, games and more. There are three age groups:

Sparklers (3 – 5s)

All Stars (5 – 9s)

Trailblazers (9 – 11s)

An optional course preparing older children for admission to communion takes place in April/May.

Our young people’s group meets on Friday evenings for social activities and on Sunday mornings for discussion, prayer and Bible study (younger youth) Several of the older teenagers choose to worship at the Evening Celebration and serve by helping with children's groups once a month at the morning service.

Youth alpha runs periodically.

Get Real and older teens are encouraged to attend either morning or evening worship and to be involved in the life of the church in some way if they wish (eg music, kid's group helper, refreshments team).

There is a house group for teens aged 16+ on Tuesday evenings.
