Senior Youth Group
Our Senior Youth Group meets by arrangement.
For meeting times and further information, please contact us using the website's 'Contact Us' button.
Our group is open to anyone of secondary school age, whether they attend church or not. Meetings are generally held in The Glebe Street Hall on Sunday afternoons from 3 to 5 p.m. (There is a small weekly charge of £2)
The group also helps with our Messy Church sessions. When we meet, we chat, do some arts and crafts, play games, and have fun. “Stop the Bus” is a particular favourite.
In addition to Sunday meetings, the young people have opportunities to attend various other activities and events.
At one of our recent sessions, we had our own version of the TV reality show “I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here”, when we focused on winning stars for food by undertaking six trials, all based on working together as a team and using all our individual and unique gifts and talents that God has given us. The young people worked well as a team, some more forceful than others – no names mentioned - but in the end, all six trials were completed, food was won, and everyone went home happy!
In addition, we went 10-pin bowling at M&D’s theme park in Motherwell and had a great time. We also attended a concert by Philippa Hanna, the current No. 1 Christian singer-songwriter in the UK, at Avondale Old Parish Church in Strathaven. Click here to go to her website.
