CHILDREN AND YOUTH

Tamariki me te Taiohi

LEARN

NAU MAI, HAERE MAI

We believe that children and young people are vital members of the church or any Christian community. For that reason we are aim to be an Intergenerational church, where all ages are working together towards a common goal–sharing and growing in their faith. We work to create space for children and young people to belong and identify. We believe that all ages benefit from being together in worship and in community.
We learn and are encouraged by what each age/stage brings.

INTERGENERATIONAL WORSHIP

All ages are invited and encouraged to use their gifts within our worship services, from reading to intercessions, to helping set up the worship space, to contributing to music. At St Saviours and St John’s there is a children’s area set aside within the worship space. There is a regular altar talk for children at St Saviours. Please contact the office if you would like to know more, Vicar Julie would be very pleased to meet with you regarding the needs of your own children.
