Children's Ministry

Children are an important part of the worshipping community at St John's. We love and enjoy the spontaneity and life that they bring with them when they come to worship and when they come as visitors.

The playpen, toys and colouring-in table in the west end of the cathedral near the shop are a permanent part of the cathedral life. They are there for children to use at anytime they wish.

Sunday Mornings

Children of all ages are invited to join us during the 9.30 service on Sunday mornings. We meet in the near the shop and the playpen to talk, listen to stories and 'do' craft. We have fun with paper, cardboard, stickers, play dough, junk and sometimes even food! Parents are welcome to come if needed and children are free to spend as much or as little of the service as they wish in the children's area. Children often help take the gifts up in the offertory procession and everyone is encouraged to go up to receive either communion or a blessing.

Special interactive liturgies for children take place on Christmass Eve, Good Friday and several other times during the year. Children of any age are invited with friends and family to join us for worship, music and fun.

Cathedral Play Area

The Cathedral Play area is available for families to use at all times.
