SERVE

Creating a welcoming, fun and open space for all our young people is essential. Monday Club is our shop window for young people, it is often the first place they come into contact with us and where they meet members of the church community. Monday Club team needs people who are approachable, responsible…and ready to play a game.

Having children as part of our community is a privilege. Serving on Kids Team is not about being an all-round entertainer, rather it is about pointing our children towards Jesus and helping them form their own personal relationship with Him. Our team seek to create a safe space with trusted adults where everyone can learn and enjoy themselves.

Music plays a key role in many of our gatherings as we seek to enable people to worship and engage with God. As we are small this requires some preparation prior to the service as well as being present throughout. It helps if you have some experience or play an instrument, however, we want to encourage involvement wherever possible.

At Service ZERO the hospitality team helps set up, prepare refreshments, provide drinks after the service, and clear up afterwards. We like to think if you make a cup of tea or coffee for yourself at home, you are qualified to be on the hospitality team. The reality is that being part of the hospitality team you have a key role in community building.

We would love to think that set-up and set-down are activities that everyone can be involved in, so why not come early and get involved.
