Youth and Kids

At Grace Church, we are passionate about our kids and young people growing in their love and knowledge of Jesus.  We want to give them the best foundations we can, and encourage them as they seek to engage with the stories of the Bible and a relationship with Jesus.  Our kids work gives them the opportunity to discover God's love, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and is a place where they can make friends and enjoy exploring the bible together.
Grace Church Kids has three groups that meet on a Sunday morning during the morning service.  All groups are led and supported by a team of volunteers that have been safely appointed and DBS checked.  Look out for the team leaders wearing Kids Worker ID badges and lanyards in Church!
 
'Explorers' is for children aged 2 1/2  to Preschool – this provision is available from 10:30am. 'Explorers' is a loving environment for our youngest children to be a part of our caring Christian community. It is a safe place where our children experience Jesus’ love and goodness.
In 'Explorers' the children:
  • Play together with toys
  • Sing songs
  • Play games
  • Make crafts
  • Have a story time using a Bible story
  • Enjoy a snack time
'Explorers' meet in the Grace Church small hall.  Parents should take their children to the small hall at 10.30am to register them with the group leaders and collect them at the end of the service.  Children will only be released from the session back to their parents.

'Champions' is for children aged Reception -  school year 2 – Champions meets in the school hall at Devonshire Rd School and the children have great fun learning about a Bible story, playing games, enjoying crafts as well as action songs, crafts snacks and other fun activities. The aim of 'Champions' is that it is a place to have fun, find friends and to encourage the children to begin building a relationship with God. 

'God's Amazing Helpers'  – is for children in school years 3-6 – in 'GAH's' the children learn about Jesus by playing games, doing activities and having great fun! They also enjoy action songs, creative prayer and sharing snacks together.  This group encourages the children to grow in their relationship with Jesus and to step out in praise, worship and prayer! 

'Champions' and 'God's Amazing Helpers' meet in the school hall at Devonshire Rd School next door to Grace Church.   Children should register with their leaders in the foyer at Grace Church at 10.30am to walk with their leaders to the school.  Children should take a coat with them during wet weather.

If you arrive later than 10.30am please see a member of the welcoming team and they will escort you and your child to the school to join the groups.

The Grace Church Kids team is headed up by Jo White.  Please see Jo if you have any questions or concerns.

Youth - 33@GC


​Our young people, in school years 7-11, receive regular Sunday morning teaching which includes games and a discussion about a teaching or section in the Bible.  We also love our young people to come along to our Friday night youth club, 33@GC and to bring their friends.   

Each Summer we take our youth to a Christian festival in Norfolk, called Newday, where 7,000+ young people meet to learn about God, to worship God and to have a whole of fun.
​
We love our young people to meet together to encourage each other in their walk with God.
