Youth
There are lots of groups for youth aged 11-18 years old.
The 11AM to Sundays at 11am
Younger Youth (Years 7-9) meet in the Hut during the 11am. To younger Youth (Years 7-8) meet in the Hut and Older Youth (Years 9-13) meet in church during the 11am.
We want to help the young people in our church explore their faith and come to know God’s love, build friendships and experience the Holy Spirit. We love to play games, have discussions and pray together.
Together, we explore the 4 approaches to spirituality and ways we may encounter God:
-
Intellectually knowing God through knowing about God -through bible studies and theological discussions.
-
Emotionally knowing God through feelings -through worship and unpacking different emotions
-
Awe/wonder knowing God through seeing things that can’t be put into words–e.g.seeing a sunset or holding a hedgehog
-
Social justice knowing God through actively trying to transform the world – looking at inequalities and problems in our world and how we might be able to make a change.
