Children’s Groups at St. John’s Blackheath

Children’s at St. John’s

We are committed to supporting parents and carers in bringing up their children to know God as well as providing safe and welcoming places for all children & families to hear about Jesus for the first time.

Whether you are a regular church goer or just interested to find out more, you are very welcome to try our groups. Just turn up or contact children@stjohnsblackheath.org.uk if you would like to discuss joining us on a Sunday morning.

Sunday Morning Children’s Groups

Our Sunday morning children’s groups take place during the 10:15 service and are a place for 2-11 year olds to to learn from Bible, build friendships and have fun. We also have a creche room available for younger children.

Once a month we have an all age service where everyone stays together for the duration of the service. We plan these services to be fun and engaging for everyone – no matter your age.
