CHILDREN's work

Picture

At St Andrew's we love love kids and young people!

Jesus said "Let the little children come to me”. He said it 2000 years ago but we believe He continues to say it today!
St Andrew's loves children and young people and attracts many families with children. We see children and young people as a key part of our church family.  We also seek to provide programmes especially for them and want them to get caught up in a vision for God that will give them direction and purpose in life.

​Vision

The vision for our Children’s Ministry is first and foremost for it to be a place where the children want to be! The children must experience the extraordinary, extravagant love of God and they must have bags of fun. We aim to ensure the time spent with children is relevant for their lives now and is solid, foundational preparation for their futures. It helps them to prepare to make a natural transition into adult church.

It must be a place where, in community with others, they feel safe and valued and can discover and celebrate who God has made them. Their gifts and talents must be encouraged and opportunities given for them to grow and to serve in the Kingdom of God. Through worship, prayer and bible teaching they must enjoy the awesome presence of God and ‘taste and see’ that He is good, developing an appetite for more! Through everything we want to be open to the work of the Holy Spirit.

Values 

  • To have fun 
  • To learn to love the Bible 
  • To be individually treasured
  • To meet with the living God
  • To be safe 
Parents are primarily responsible for their children’s spiritual growth and at St Andrew's we want our children’s ministry to be an excellent support for parents. As someone once said ‘it is better to build strong children than repair broken men’ and at St Andrew's we want the children’s ministry to be a place where ‘building’ and ‘growing’ takes place.

Holiday Clubs 

The Greatest Showman 2018

Another fantastic week. The Greatest Showman was a wonderful success thanks to the leaders and workers who gave up so much of their valuable time. Praise be to God! The 12 Days of Holiday Club will never be the same again.

Wild West Holiday Club 2017
What another fantastic year, our God is truly an Awesome God!

Picture
What a week! we have truly been blessed again by Almighty God, Over the week we have seen nearly 200 children come through our doors to share with a amazing holiday club theme the Wild West. We have had lots of fun learning all about Jesus (The Sheriff) singing new songs, playing games, making crafts and sharing our talents. Once again our thanks go out to all the willing volunteers who take time out of their busy schedules to make this week possible, but more importantly our thanks go to God for blessing us in such a way. Our Talents were certainly put to good use and we pray now that the Lord will nurture the seeds we have planted in the children's hearts. Praise the Lord!
