Youth: Year 7-9s

Real Food Micro
Real Food Micro is the name for our youth programme for Year 7-9s.
Sunday mornings
During the first part of our main meeting on Sunday mornings the whole church family spend time together, singing and sharing in the gathering of the church. During the Bible talk, those in years 7-9 have their own age appropriate Bible teaching, following the same series as the adults. On the first Sunday of every month, they get the opportunity to stay in the main meeting and join the adults for the talk. This allows them to get a taste of adult Bible teaching, and will help them integrate into the life of the church as they grow older.

Wednesday evenings
Our Moorlands Real Food Micro is for all our year 7-9s across the Lancaster schools, and their friends.
There’s tea and toast, and brilliant activities and Real Food – some great time looking at what the Bible says. This term we’re looking at the little letter to the Colossians that packs a massive punch. We’ll be thinking about what Christians believe about Jesus and how Christians are to live – rooted and built up in him. Along the way, there’s a few nuggets from Matthew’s gospel to get our teeth into. And there’s also some awesome socials including a Summer party to beat the January blues, in February, pancakes galore, and in March an Easter eggstravagansa.
Real Food Micro is great fun, and an easy place to bring friends to hear something of the good news about Jesus Christ.
It starts at 3:30pm for a 3:45pm start at Ripley Sixth Form Centre and finishes by 4:45pm.
See below for the teaching programme.
Summer Camp
Every year we send our Year 7-9s and their friends to a brilliant summer camp called Casterton 1. Casterton 1 is a fantastic holiday and is a brilliant opportunity to hear more about the message of Jesus for our young people and their friends. Based in a boarding school (but without the teachers), there’s activities (rock-climbing, canoeing, hill walking, kayaking, mountain biking, swimming, archery, drama, dance and more!), sports, crafts, outings and trips, space to relax and loads more.
This year the camp runs from Saturday 24th July to Saturday 31st July 2010.
