Junior Church

St George’s Church welcomes children of all ages! We long to share the love of God with young and old alike. For the younger end of God’s family, we offer ‘Junior Church’. This is a group of young people who meet separately for part of the church service on most Sundays to learn about Jesus and produce something, often a piece of art or craft, to show their response. Young people could be doing many other things on Sunday mornings, so we feel humbled and privileged that they and their families choose to come to St George’s. Young people enrich our church and our worship.

On the fourth Sunday of the month ‘Junior Church’ joins the wider congregation for the whole of the service, and we call this ‘Worship for All’, although we believe all worship is for all people all the time! Worship for All is a slightly shorter and simplified service of Holy Communion in which we hear God’s word, pray and receive Holy Communion or a blessing together as God’s family.

The leaders of our ‘Junior Church’ are DBS checked and have undergone the required safeguarding training. Being a ‘Safe Church’ is important to us.

At St George’s we believe that we are all learning how to live as followers of Christ all the time and our young people have a lot to teach us about trust and joy. We thank God for them and hope many others will come and give ‘Junior Church’ a try.
