Worship and Faith: Youth and Family
Our Youth and Family groups cover a range of children, young people, families and those working and integrating with them. Our current groups include Story Tots for the youngest children; Junior Church for younger members of families in church on Sundays, and Forest Praise – a collaboration with St George’s Fordington offering family-friendly fun, relaxed play and praise.
Story Tots A friendly, caring group providing an opportunity for parents/carers and their young children to meet and play with others on a weekly basis. We are currently meeting in the Main Hall of the United Church on Thursdays (during both school term time and holidays) from 9.30am - 10.45am. During the session we have plenty of time to play and chat. We might have craft activities or sing songs. The sessions are free, including the tea and coffee. We look forward to seeing established and new regulars and welcome occasional and one-off visitors.
Forest Praise Café After 11 very successful years, the organising group has decided that Forest Praise has run its course, and that it will no longer be held. This means that the session in September 2026 was the last session: there will be no sessions in the future. With thanks to the whole team for their past work in running sessions, and to everyone who has come to any Forest Praise - we loved seeing you!
Junior Church Junior Church provides for children of all ages. We are a small friendly group which enables all who join us to be made very welcome. Our young people either join the service for approximately 20 minutes before going up to their Junior Church session or will stay in Church in our designated children’s area. We enjoy a wide variety of activities - singing worship songs; reading Bible verses; quizzes; games; arts & crafts. We try to help the children understand the Bible and how Jesus’ love for us can help us in our lives today.
