Under 18s:
We have a variety of activities for children and young people, both faith-based and social. On Sundays we want the whole family to learn to worship together so we have a rhythm where some weeks there is an all-age talk in the main service, and other weeks the children and youth have their own separate programme. There are also groups for pre-schoolers and youth during the week. For the wider community, we run two Ofsted registered childcare settings, and we are funded by local councils to run a youth service that includes 5 youth clubs each week.
18-30s:
Everyone is encouraged to join a small group in order to connect with others and feel at home in the church. There are a number of activities for young adults to be involved with, including a quarterly event called the Friday Gathering.
Local outreach & community activities:
We run The Wickbourne Centre - a community facility we share with the Local Authority's Early Help team and midwife service. It's a thriving children and family centre with kids activities and a coffee shop, plus various events in the evenings including Alpha courses. We're a Christian's Against Poverty (CAP) Debt Help service, helping people manage their finances and get out of debt, and we support the local Foodbank. We also run an annual children's summer playscheme attracting 360 kids with their families, plus a youth summer camp.
Other activities & ministries:
Everyone is encouraged to join a small group in order to connect with others and feel at home in the church. There are other interest groups and opportunities for serving in many areas. We also connect with various communities around the world through our partnership with Links Charity.
