Children and Young People
‘Jesus called them back. "Let these children alone. Don't get between them and me.
These children are the kingdom's pride and joy.’"
Luke 18:15-17 (The Message)
Children are central to the life of St James’. As a family-focused church we
actively welcome families with children of all ages. Our children’s work includes
activities for both pre-school and school-age children. Our regular activities are
listed below:

Squiggles & Wiggles is an action-packed session for parents & toddlers/pre-schoolers, including a time of worship designed to engage young children's innate spirituality. Come along and join us for a trial session. Due to popularity we often have to operate a waiting list.
