Children+Families

Welcome to the children, youth and families page.

At the Minster, we are committed to supporting children, young people and families. We do this by running regular groups throughout the week for babies, toddlers, primary school aged children and a youth group for young people at the three secondary schools in our town.

Our prayer is that every child and young person we meet with will learn about God, meet Jesus, and find that they have an important and valued part of the community of the Minster.
