Youth Ministries
It is our goal to help each young person grow in their relationship with God.
We believe that every part of the body of Christ is valuable, and we are grateful for the ministry of our youth among us. These are crucial years when young people are beginning to formulate their own thoughts and beliefs and we desire our youth to fully embrace God’s call on their lives to be disciple-makers. It is not the role of the Church to replace or step-in for parents but it is to equip and walk alongside them as they raise our youth up in the Lord.
For this reason, our youth ministries are designed for our youth to thrive within our five core commitments:
​
-
We make disciples of all peoples.
-
God’s word is enough.
-
The gospel changes everything
-
The Spirit works actively today.
-
We need each other.
Please join us for a time of fun, worship, and serious study of the Word of God.

Sunday Morning
During our main gathering on a Sunday morning, we seek to include and also cater to our youngest children. After the first part of the service is complete we provide a structured creche for the little ones not yet in primary school (0-4) and a full teaching time in Sunday School for primary school-age children (4-12). Our teachers and carers are carefully chosen and trained and are Garda vetted.
