Jesus said “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” (Mark 10:14)
Working with children and young people is a hugely important part of the ministry of the Coln River Group of Parishes. We believe that this is not just an “add-on” to our other work but is central to everything that we do.
Parents and young children are encouraged to come to any service and most of our churches have a space set aside for children. The regular family or all-age services in each parish and the monthly breakfast service, “Cafe Church”, are of a less formal nature and are particularly suitable for the younger members of our community.
These are the groups that usually meet to provide for the specific needs of various age-groups:-
Toddler Play and Praise

9:30-11:00am. For 0 – 4 year olds at The Community Church, Andoversford.

Sunday Club
The Sunday Club is a fun group for primary school aged children. They generally have a bible story, activity and snack time.
