For young people aged 11-18 years…

Sunday evenings (6.50 to 8.50pm):

Meeting just before 7pm for drinks, we chat and then come together to worship in different ways. Sometimes with music, sometimes not. Then some input on a relevant topic that provokes questions for discussion in our cell groups. This time is when we get to talk without adults and work out how what we are learning can work for us in our normal life.

On the 1st Sunday of the month we join with the evening congregation for a joint celebration service: sung worship is led by the youth music group in their own style.

Cell groups:

These small groups of about 6 to 8 form the base of the congregation: here young people are able to talk about life and faith with supportive friends who will encourage, challenge and pray for them. Cells are led by young people and often arrange to meet at other times for fun activities.

Transformers:

An individual mentoring scheme for older members who wish to grow as disciples of Christ.

Holidays/weekends away:

We go away together at least twice a year – a weekend and the Soul Survivor festival.

Volunteering:

We encourage members to serve others in voluntary work and sometimes organise group social action trips. We support young people to work overseas during their gap year.

Youth Music Group:

If you can play a Basoon, or hold a tune then you can join with the Music Group. They play most evenings at Youth Zone.
