About our youthwork

Hello! If you’ve come to this page, you’re probably interested in our youth work. If you’re not, I’m sorry that you’ve taken a wrong turn.

We run a youth group on Friday nights in Sydenham and support youth in the church.

Are you a young person? Good. We enjoy spending time with each other playing games, making music, having deep chats and eating loads of food.

Are you a parent? Ignore that bit. We sit quietly, eat fruit, and make sure everyone’s done their homework.

The youth team

Stevie

Stevie is our excellent Youth Pastor. He loves worship, mentoring young people in music skills and pretending he knows Mandarin.

Scott

Scott is a web design genius, and loves thinking of new company names. He dislikes a messy desk.

Laraine

Laraine enjoys deep discussions about the Bible, and her dog. She doesn't enjoy having her sleep disturbed.

Dion

Dion is an expert lactose-free baker, and loves hosting and helping out. She's not such a fan of going to bed late. 9.30pm please.

SwitchIt!

This Wednesday, 6:30pm

Switch It! aims to inspire, transform and bring hope to young people's lives through football. The programmes engage young people in activities that encourage them to build a strong foundation and enable them to make the right choices at the right time.

Founded in 2007, the Switch It! team now consists of dedicated and qualified volunteering coaching staff whose job is to create a safe environment where young people can play, learn and develop regardless of ability. Through skills development, matches, discussions and life coaching, Switch It! aims to challenge young people to think about the choices they make both on and off the pitch.

The project is aimed at young people aged 10 - 16 years old. During term time, the team runs weekly sessions and in the holidays there are occasional week-long academies, tournaments and other events.

Switch It takes place on Wednesday evenings at the Bridge Leisure Centre in Sydenham from 6.30pm-8pm, and costs £2 per session.

For more information on the programme or if you have an interest in supporting, please contact switchitfl@gmail.com
