For many of us our journey of faith began when we were children, with positive encounters and opportunities to begin a relationship with Jesus.

The children’s work at St George’s is only possible by having enough leaders to serve and help with the groups. At the moment we really need more people to come and serve. If you are interested in helping out in this fun and exciting ministry, please get in touch.

7.30pm, Tue 13 Oct, Centre Extra Time Network warmly invite you to an evening where members of St G’s will share their experiences of illness, and invite you to share yours, so that we can help and encourage one another. Contact John for info.
