This service is for toddlers and ages up to around 5. The service lasts around 30 minutes. We begin with a craft activity and include a story from the bible, songs and prayer. We sing, pray, tell and act out stories from the Bible, make things to take home with us, eat food and have a lot of fun together.
This Communion service is designed with children and young people in mind. We encourage children and young people to take on a role in the service and we admit children to Holy Communion from the age of 8. If you are looking for a service to come to with a child this might be the one to try.
