We have a Junior Church each Sunday morning (at the same time as the
main 11 am service). Experienced adult leaders help the children to have a great time exploring the basics of the Christian
faith - it is often messy with lots of glue, paint and sparkly stuff!
The children have a great time!
Children begin their time with us at the start of the main service in Church. Then they go, with their leaders, into a separate
space to do their own thing. They re-join the main service later at the start of Holy Communion so that they may share that
experience with their parents and other family members.
We welcome all the children to come forward at Communion
to receive a blessing from the Priest at the altar rail - we consider it so important that our little ones receive God's
blessing at this time.
Towards the end of the service the children are invited to come to the front of Church to
show the rest of us what they've been doing in Junior Church - they bring with them their drawings and other things they've
made - the adults love to see what the kids have been up to!
At Christ Church we offer a safe and friendly environment
for our children, and all our Junior Church leaders and assistants are fully DBS checked.
