"Live Wires"

"Live Wires" is what might previously have been called Sunday School. This is for primary age children and offers them a fun way to learn about the Gospel - as well as enabling parents to take part in the main service. It is available every Sunday except for the first one of the month which is when we have our Family Praise service.

We have several children's leaders and helpers running this group who are all DBS checked. We would be grateful for more volunteers. Please think about whether you too might be interested in helping in this way. If you would like to join them on a rota basis or want to know more please contact Bronny (bronny.slowe@gmail.com) or our churchwarden Jane Arnott.
