You've come to the right place to find out more about Life Kids!
What's on offer on a Sunday
We offer a vibrant Children's Ministry that operates every week during the Sunday meeting allowing them to encounter God in a context designed specifically for them.
We have a room for mums and their new babies, up until about 1 year old. The meeting is relayed here so you need not miss out whilst you feed your baby or change their nappy.
We then have 3 groups: Firecrackers for 1 - 3 year olds; Sparklers for 3 - 5 year olds and Rockets for 5 - 11 year olds, run by volunteers.
What happens
Each children's group follows a biblical teaching programme in age appropriate ways. In teaching from the Bible, our emphasis is not about knowing the stories but uncovering the truths and principles contained within them.
Our desire is that the children come to know God - Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit – but not just know about Him. We long for them to develop their own relationship with Him, experiencing His power, His love, His good plans, His interest in the day to day of their lives.
All children usually start in the Auditorium for about 30 minutes, worshipping with the rest of the church family and then an announcement will be made, or a notice will appear on the screen, when it is time for the children to go to their groups, where they stay, on average, for an hour.
Registering your child
If your child hasn’t been to Life Kids before, please head on over and register your child so we have his / her details ahead of you arriving in The Forum. When you arrive on Sunday, between 10.15-10.45am you’ll see some friendly members of the Life Kids team there to greet you and sign your child in for the morning.
Outside of a Sunday Morning
Stay and Play happens fortnightly during term time on a Monday morning from 10am - 11.30am in The Forum. This is for parents, carers and your under 5's - babies, toddlers and preschool children. Lots of free play, time to chat and meet people, story time and craft time are all part of 'Stay and Play'. Check out the
calendar for dates of when we are meeting.
We run regular events for families throughout the year. Watch this space!
