Sunday Morning Celebration

Psalm 145 vs 4 & 5 tells us that "One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty.” At Grace Community, it is our desire to see God raise up a generation of children who are passionate about Jesus, and who have a personal relationship with him. During our Sunday morning service, we have age specific programmes, where children are able to enjoy worship; relevant and inspiring teaching from the Bible and opportunities to grow in relationship with older, more mature Christians who lead them by example. We aim, firstly to encourage children to encounter Jesus and know Him as their personal Lord and Saviour, and also that what children learn on Sundays will help them to grow as they follow Jesus during the week.

We seek to serve our children through these goals

  • Worship: To help children to enjoy times of age appropriate praise and to create opportunities for children to be drawn into the presence of God.
  • Salvation: To teach the gospel & to present opportunities for children to accept Christ as their Lord and Saviour.
  • Bible truths: to present the Bible in alive, creative and interactive ways of teaching. We want our children to understand, learn and love the Bible; and to apply God’s Word to their lives.
  • Prayer: to teach our children how to pray. We encourage children to develop a relationship with the person of the Holy Spirit; and to enjoy His gifts and to encounter His presence.
  • Authentic community: It is our desire to build genuine relationships in a cross cultural group of kids and to foster a genuine love and respect for each other. Relationships are built (particularly in the older children’s programmes) through small groups.
  • Fun, creative & innovative programmes: Meeting with Jesus and learning to love others is FUN! Our aim is to make it just that!
