Nursery & Sunday School families!
Summer Sunday School

While parents and guardians worship, our kids will be thriving, with supervised fun in the fantastic Town and Country playground this summer. Come straight down to the playground at the bottom of the steps. Or ask an Usher to direct you.

The nursery is still available for our tiniest church members. Up to you to decide where your little one(s) would be happiest.

And as ever we always welcome kids in church. No one will shush you. We love to see families and children in our pews!

Hey there, High School Teens!
Are you interested in exploring the exciting world of sound and live streaming?

If yes, then we have some great news for you! We are looking for enthusiastic and curious teens like you to join our Jr. Audiovisual Team. As a member of the team, you will get the opportunity to learn how to operate the sound and live streaming systems. This is a fantastic chance to gain some hands-on experience and learn new skills that could open up many doors for you in the future.

So, what are you waiting for? If you are interested, then get in touch with Fabrizio Pelá. We can't wait to hear from you!
