Children & Families

Team Leader: Lucia Pearson-Gee families@bpchurch.uk

I give thanks for:
 All the incredible volunteers for Christmas Unwrapped, Lighthouse Christmas Party, The Ark team, and the Sunday Kids team.
 For the Nativity service being well received and for the new families that attended on the back of the Christmas Parade flyer hand out!
 For more Ark families attending our 11am service.

Please pray for:
 Will and my time away in Switzerland from 29th December-15th January. For provision of care for my mother in our absence.
 For a fresh vision for kids outreach work changing from what is currently offered at The Lighthouse.
 Wisdom over how to evangelise the families of Lighthouse more effectively and whether to offer a daytime Alpha/parenting course etc.
More space to provide for the increasing number of SEN children coming to the family service.
 For a number 2 in command to support my work on Sundays
 More volunteers to help in the children’s groups, ideally once a month for 40 minutes to provide the care needed to grow the groups even more effectively.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at BP Church for our Sunday Services starting at 9am, 11am or 6pm. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team who will be wearing a Welcome lanyard.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits before the services begin. It is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

What about my kids?

The kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, music, craft, drama, fun games and free play. Please pick your children up as soon as the service finishes.

Getting Connected

Connect Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out Connect Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team.
