Children in Church Services

JAM (Jesus and Me) Age 3 years up

1st Sundays are All Age Worship led by Deacon Selina Nisbett, and Baptisms are normally held on these days too.

JAM happens on the 2nd and 4th Sundays. Two of us will take the children over to the Conduit Centre after the first hymn and aim to return just before the end of the service.

(This does not mean that children aren’t welcome on the other Sundays, they are!)

3rd Sundays are often Communion services and children are welcome to receive communion as parents deem appropriate.

The Welcome Area is always available during a service if parents want to take their children out, particularly under 3 years. There are some colouring and sticking activities available and the service is audible from here.

When JAM is on, we all start in church for the first hymn, then we cross the grass, go through the church hall, up the wooden stairs and into our JAM room!  We take safeguarding very seriously at Trinity Church and regularly update our safeguarding policy, which is available on this website under policies and displayed in our church entrance.
