Tweens is our high energy pre-teen 9-12 yr old group. This group caters to our younger youth during the sermon time. Bible-based lessons and fulfilled activities will fully occupy the young minds. This group worships with the main Church before moving to their programme.

KFC stands for Kids for Christ, this programme runs in conjunction with the 10am worship service and caters to children from about 4 to 9 years of age. Children worship with adults in the main service and move to their programme just before the sermon. At KFC the Word of God will be taught in a fun and creative way. Worship is also an important experience incorporating creative activity and music. Come and join the fun.
