Children's Church, Teens and Babies
Our Vision
We want to see our children loving people and loving Jesus and following in His actions, demonstrating love to the world.
Our Mission
We want our children to learn to identify loving kindness and put it into practise with everyone they meet, wherever they go, in order to glorify God and bring His Kingdom on earth.
There are 3 different groups at Children’s Church and Teen Church, each offering a place for everyone to learn and grow in their faith.
What to expect at Children’s Church: Each lesson is set up according to a theme e.g Peace. The lesson will introduce the concept, facilitate discussion around the topic and give children opportunities to read about the concept in the bible and pray about it. The lessons incorporate the use of multimedia, practical activities, games to facilitate learning and teamwork.
The Team: Stephanie, our Children’s Church Coordinator, works alongside a group of teachers and helpers who rotate on a roster and serve at least once a month. These individuals are committed and passionate about helping our children grow a personal relationship with Jesus. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Stephanie (kidschurch@mercyvineyard.co.
Teens: There is a growing teens ministry at Mercy which aims to invest into teen spiritual development. This group meets on Sundays after worship at church to chat about topics surrounding faith and life as a Christian teenager.
Babies: Moms and dads with little babies and toddlers are encouraged to join the Sunday Services and make use of the cry room/private comfortable area to feed or change their babies. There are various toys, games and books there as well to keep the little ones engaged.
