Children's Ministry

children

Have you got children that you would like to bring to church? We run a specific programme just for kids! 

As a family church we welcome children. For us this is a real privilege and a great responsibility. You will see the varied groups below. Some are about our children meeting and relaxing together. Others are more energetic and activity based. While in others they learn together and can grow in their faith. In all of them, we want to see them having fun, being cared for and encouraged, learning about friendship and relationships in an atmosphere where each child is special, respected and valued as an individual. Our aim is to make sure every child can be themselves in a safe and welcoming environment. Our children's workers are all volunteers, are DBS checked and have safeguarding training. 

wrbc youth toddlers sml-300x19‘Toddlers’ is a special place. It is an opportunity for parents, grandparents or other carers to bring babies and young children to a friendly informal group where everyone is welcome and cared for. The children play with a range of toys, games and puzzles, including outdoor play equipment, ride on toys, play dough, painting and crafts.

As the children play the grown-ups get a chance to have a tea or coffee; to sit down and chat with old friends or a chance to make new ones. Before we finish we meet together for a sing song and the children have juice and biscuits.

The leaders are there to chat, play with the children, make drinks and help out wherever they can. You and the children in your care are always welcome to join us. We meet every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon from 1.30 – 2.45.

*********

Our Sunday morning children’s work is split into 3 age groups. Minizone (0s to 5s), Whizz Kids (5-9s) and Extreme (9-11s).

We want the kids to have great fun whilst learning more about Jesus and meeting with Him.

wrbc youth minizone smlIf you have little ones up to the age of 5 then Minizone is the place for them to be on a Sunday morning – a place to play and make, a place to laugh and have fun – a place of care while parents and carers are in the service.

Together we get busy playing with cars, trains, animals, dolls, jigsaws, building bricks, play-dough, sticking, painting, baking and more. We listen and join in with a story, we sing and talk to God and have a drink and a biscuit. Minizone is a special place to play, learn and grow together.


Glo colourGlo is the place to be for 5-9 year olds- through songs, crafts, activities, games, drama and DVD we share together to discover and explore about life, growing and learning. We want the children to feel a sense of belonging and to grow spiritually. We share stories from the Bible, learn about Jesus and the things he did, pray and share our thoughts and ideas together. We want the children to begin to grasp that God’s word is special and relevant to their everyday lives in a way that is fun and memorable.

Limitless is for 9–11 year olds – as the children get older we want them to develop in their personal understanding and relationship with Jesus. In creative ways we encourage them to read the Bible, learn about Jesus and have a living relationship with Him. We place a lot of importance in trying to encourage them in a relationship with God that continues and grows from week to week.
