Children and Young People
All
Saints provides Sunday morning activities for
babies, children and young people on Sundays during
term time, except for the first Sunday of the month
when we have our Worship for All service.
Creche
A
crčche is available for the under 3s where the
babies and toddlers are cared for by members of All
Saints, with toys suitable for their age.
JC - Junior
Church
If
you are between the age of 3 and 11 and enjoy lots
of fun and laughter then JC's is for you.
We
meet at 10am in the community hall and our purpose
is to support the children as they start their
journey of faith, learning about Jesus in a fun,
exciting and safe environment.
We
use a mixture of teaching, prayer, craft activities,
cooking and fun worship songs.
Each session is based on a theme i.e. the good
shepherd, feeding the 5000, doubting Thomas. All
children are welcomed and join together for a story
and prayers. The group then splits into 2 groups –
age 3-8 and 8-11 for their own activities.
At
the end of the session the groups come together to
share what they have learned before going into
Church for a blessing.

Pathfinders
Any
young person from age 11 – 14 is welcome. We meet in
the Webber Hall (next to the Church) for an
opportunity to discover the challenge of being a
Christian today through Bible-based discussions and
other activities.
About once a month Pathfinders has a film night, and
get away once a year for a long weekend to just
chill and have a fun time together.

BOG FC
(Badly Organised Group for Christ)
BOG
FC was introduced in January 2007 as part of the 4TY
initiative for young people aged 14 to 18. The aim
of the group is to allow young people to meet in a
relaxed environment, allowing them to express and
develop their faith.
We
have committed members who take a full part in
sessions and church life. Sessions are twice
monthly, with the other Sundays in church. At
present we are using the NOOMA DVD’s and youthwork
resources as discussion material. We also run
socials to Charrington Bowl for an afternoon of fun
and fellowship.
Future plans for BOG FC include
further discussions, socials and the possibility of
a young people's home group to spend more time on
bible study. We hope to welcome new members to BOG
FC in the near future.
Some children
and young people prefer to come to church without wanting to belong to a group.
This isn't a problem.
