We are excited to be launching Thrive Juniors on Saturday 24th March. Our event will bring children aged 5 – 11, and their leaders, from across the churches in Warwick, Leamington and Kenilworth together to worship as one.
Engaging children in worship can be challenging at times, especially when there are low numbers of children in the church. Sometimes, from a child’s eyes, their experience of worship in church is just hanging on in there, eagerly waiting to leave the service until they can head for their groups.
The vision for Thrive Juniors is to create an atmospheric venue where children can come in mass and get excited about worshiping God. My hope and prayer is that God’s presence will surround us and that children and leaders will be blessed throughout the afternoon.
We will be joined by different denominations, with groups of children from both large and small churches. It’s going to be amazing to see St Paul’s Church, Warwick, packed with children and adults praising God and exploring the gospel together.
What does Thrive Juniors hope to achieve?
Two things: Firstly that churches can be united and children can meet other Christians in their local area. Secondly that children and leaders will be encouraged and enthused in their Christian faith.
Please do be praying for all the preparation beforehand and for the afternoon itself, that God will draw near and move amongst us.
