Children and Youth

Children and youth of all ages are welcome at All Souls!

 

Living as God’s Children

We want to help young people come to know Christ, live as God’s children in the world and persevere as Christians into adulthood. We teach the Bible, build good relationships with them and have fun together. We also support parents and guardians in their vital role as the primary disciplers of their children.

Sundays

However old you are, from 0–18, join us on a Sunday at one of our services. We don’t have all our usual Children’s and Youth activities but we’ve tried to make sure there’s still something for everyone!

Babies & Toddlers (0–2½)

9.30am Morning Service

There is a family space available in the Waldegrave Hall for those with babies and toddlers. This is unsupervised but parents with young children are welcome to use this area during the service.

Children (2½–4)

9.30am Morning Service

We are running Scramblers during the 9.30am service but you must sign up in advance. Parents will receive an email during the week with details of how to sign up. Please contact our C Zone team for more details.

Children (5–11)

9.30am Morning Service

We are encouraging all families with children over 5 to attend our 9.30am ‘All In’ morning service. This is an all-age service specifically designed to welcome families back to church. We hope to see you then!

Midweek Youth

Our Friday night G Force and Revolution groups are back! We meet on Friday evenings during term-time for games, Bible study and worship. It’s a great way to make friends and get to know people; if you’re currently at secondary school, make sure you come along!
