‘Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray’
Proverbs 22. 6
Children and young people are an integral part of our church community, included and central to our activities. We provide a safe and supportive environment, giving them the freedom to worship together and develop their faith.
Other activities
Nativity plays
We welcome every child to take part in this fun activity helping our young people to understand and develop a clear philosophy behind the reason for Christmas, including its spiritual meanings. Every child is welcome to take part.
Open events
We host open events during the year for young people. All children are welcome. This includes activities like handcraft, story-telling, public presentation & coaching, discussions about modern technology, Bible stories, dance, etc. The local police and ambulance also attends to give talks.
Growing in faith
“Train a child in the right way, and when old, they will not stray” (Proverbs 22. 6). We work and walk with our young people on their spiritual journey based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, helping them to develop empathy, compassion, and reflect these on their day-to-day activities.
