Our Younger Members
Sunday School takes place during the 10 a.m. service on
Sundays. The Stars (3-6yrs) meet in the Church Hall, the Meteorites (7-8yrs)
meet in the new Christ Church Centre, the Comets (9-11yrs) meet downstairs
in the house next door to the church, and the Pathfinders (S1 and S2 age group)
meet upstairs there. The teachers use "The Whole People of God" material which was
developed by a group of teachers in Canada. It is based on the 3-year ecumenical
lectionary of Bible readings. There is also a crèche (0-3yrs), meeting in the
Christ Church Centre, which is always staffed by two adults. There are toys
available, and parents are welcome to stay with their children if they wish.
Children come in to the main service in time to join their parents or friends
for Communion. Occasionally the 10 o. clock service is for all ages and the
children help to lead this.
Guides, Brownies and the Holy Corner Playgroup,
while not directly connected with the congregation at Christ Church, meet on
Church premises.
Adults and Families
There
is a wide variety of opportunities for adult members of the congregation to meet
together in small groups and to deepen their knowledge and experience of the
Christian faith. For some of these the programme is intermittent and varies from
year to year - look out for leaflets and notices in the magazine, or ask any
member of the Ministry Team. Others. Occasionally there are Quiet Days and retreats, as well
as social/study weekends which whole families can attend. Groups of people with a
common interest e.g. Two groups of walkers who explore the very lovely
countryside which surrounds us.
There is also "VIVA", a social group for people in their 20s and 30s,
which meets monthly.
