Sundays
We believe that following Jesus is the adventure of a lifetime, and we want to make sure that our kids are equipped and empowered to know God; to follow him faithfully with their whole hearts, and to make him known among their friends and family.
During our Sunday morning service, we join in sung worship all together, and then our kids head out to engage in Bible teaching of their own, which will include time for worship, prayer and fun! At the moment, we have groups for preschoolers through to year 5s!
We want to equip families of all shapes and sizes to follow Jesus together; we want to create space for our young people to encounter God, and we want to show them with our own lives what it can look like to be obedient, whole-life disciples.
If you’d like to come along to St Luke’s and you have questions about our St Luke’s Kids’ ministry, please get in touch. We’d love to chat to you!
