Children's Department
Matthew 18:5
"Whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name, welcomes me" - Jesus |
Welcome to the Children's Department at Testwood Baptist Church
We believe that the Bible teaches that every child is special in God's eyes and so we seek to make the time they spend with us on a Sunday morning the best hour of each child's week.
Our aim is that your child will be introduced to the love of Jesus in an environment which is Christ centred, God honouring, child orientated, relational, fun, creative and safe.
We look forward to welcoming your child to one of our groups on a Sunday morning, catering from babies right up to school year 6. We also have a youth department group called Encounter for school years 7 to 11 that meets in the coffee bar during the morning service.
Creche
We have two separate creche groups during our Sunday morning services: Under 2's and age 2 to 3. The creche is a fun environment with exciting equipment to entertain your baby or young child.
