Church of the Martyrs

Sunday Club and
Children's Groups


The Martyrs has Sunday activities for ALL ages.
Here are a few details.


Crèche

Crèche meets during each main morning service, in a purpose-built room with plenty of toys and facilities. There are usually between five and ten babies and toddlers in crèche.

Scramblers

Scramblers are aged 3½ to 5 years. Their programme is very active, with plenty of games, interesting things to see and do, and a chance to find out about Jesus and make friends.

Climbers

Climbers are 5 to 7 years. Like Scramblers, they also have an active programme, with games, things to see and do, and a chance to find out about Jesus and how God wants us to live as His friend.

Explorers

Explorers combines wild games and activities with excellent Bible learning. Explorers are Junior-school age, and are “exploring” what it means to be a Christian.

Pathfinders

Pathfinders are age 11 to 14 years, which means they have lots of questions, as well as needing lots of answers. Their weekly programme includes discussion, interaction, worship and other generally groovy stuff.

Torch

Up to 20 older teenagers meet on a Sunday evening, for a programme designed to apply Christian faith to real life, and give space for faith to grow and develop. Torch also has a big social programme.

Schools

The Martyrs welcomes visits from school groups. Some resources for schools are available on this site. Contact vicar@martyrs.org.uk for more information.

J-Team

At Easter every two years the Martyrs does The J-Team. This is a hyper-active Christian Holiday Club, with games, video, songs, crafts, Bible stories and foot-stomping music. Yeah!

 

Come on, clap your hands, if you wanna join the J-Team.
Come on, stamp your feet, if you wanna join the J-Team.
It’s the Team for you and me,
Come along and you will see,
Come on and be glad, we’re in the J-Team.
