The Forge – our youth (secondary school age) group!

Embers – our group for year 6-8 students!

FORGE – SECONDARY (yr 9-13)!
Each Wednesday evening during school terms, our youth meet from 7-9pm at the church (normally).  Beginning with fun and food, the group then has a time of following Jesus and forging authentic relationships and community, and then hang out afterwards.

During term breaks, and summer, there are events, camps and retreats.  This is a safe place for any teen, no matter where they are on their spiritual journey.   Students come from a variety of secondary colleges in the city.

Our youth also participate and serve in all aspects of our church family.  It is our conviction that they are very much a part of our church today, not sometime in the future.  From Oasis (children’s ministry) to kids’ holiday programmes, serving in services and helping with various events, they are a vital part of our shared life together.

Friends are also very welcome anytime. There’s always room at the table!

EMBERS – INTERMEDIATES (yr 6-8)!
Embers has two times a week.  The first is Thursdays after school, 3.30-5pm at the church.  It is often outside and involves lots of fun!  Students are from our parish, as well as from the two nearest schools where we have 24/7 Youth Work staff, Westburn and Merrin Schools.

On Sundays Embers meets at 10.30am, starting with the congregation and then leaving for focused time together.
