Youth at St Andrew’s

A place for young people to belong, grow, and live out their faith

At St Andrew’s, we’re passionate about walking alongside young people as they navigate life, identity, and faith.

This is a space where teens can be themselves, ask honest questions, build real friendships, and discover how much they are loved by God.

🌱 What We’re About

We meet young people where they are — supporting them as they explore:

Who they are and their identity and self-worth

What the Bible says about real life

How to build a genuine relationship with God

· How faith makes a difference in everyday challenges and opportunities

Our heart is to help young people grow into confident, compassionate, faith-filled individuals.

🕙 Sundays | 10:00am

Our youth meet in Church Gate House during the 10am service.

Sessions are relaxed, engaging, and relevant — with space to talk, reflect, and grow together.

Every 3rd Sunday of the month Our young people take an active role in the main church service — serving, leading, and being part of the wider church family.

🙌 Faith in Action

We don’t just talk about faith — we live it.

Our youth are actively involved in serving:

In church – supporting Kids Church and church events

In the community – serving local charities and initiatives

Beyond our local community – through trips and mission opportunities

This includes:

Serving in Moldova

Trips to Taizé, France

Other local and international opportunities

Young people are also encouraged to lead and take ownership, including actively fundraising for these trips.

🌍 Close, Near & Far

We love helping young people see the bigger picture — that they can make a difference:

Close – in their friendships and daily lives

Near – in our local community

Far – through mission and global experiences
