We are here to equip and empower our children in the word, worship and prayer. We want to support families to build vibrant homes, which overflow into our neighbourhoods.

Our programme whilst we are at home includes content to entertain and educate children, and opportunities for regular contact with peers and friends. This is: PBC Kids, Memory Verse Challenge, Online Games, Scouting Groups.
 

PBC Kids

Our children are meeting up on Sunday mornings via Zoom. Ages 2-6 years: 9-9.30am. Ages 7-10 years: 9.45-10.30am. Programmes include bible stories and a short lesson, singing/worship and maybe dancing, craft and games. Contact us for joining details. 
 

Each month we are memorising a part of the Bible. Children may prefer to learn the passage one verse at a time! Send a Whatsapp video of your child saying a verse or the passage to Wendy: 07732 648693. At the end of the month, a video montage is put together and shown on Sunday mornings to encourage everyone to enjoy God's word. Prizes are awarded monthly for achievements and/or showing perseverance in learning. Do let us know which verse you like best and why. Adults, you are invited to learn the scripture and take part too!



1 John 4:7-11

7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
