New Equipment for PJT 1 & 2

After the great success of our Parish Fashion Show it was decided that some of the proceeds should go towards buying new equipment for PJT Youth Club. We are purchasing a projector & screen and a sound system with speakers & microphone. This will give us plenty of new ideas and activities that we can now programme into PJT Youth Club and the microphone will hopefully save the leaders vocal chords from the perils of PJT1!!! Some ideas we have planned include discos, roller discos, karaoke, movie nights, discussion nights. Watch this space for more information.

If you would like any information regarding PJT Youth Club please contact:

Nicola Halford via the Parish Office or email from our contact page

St. Philip & St. James' Sunday Club

Sunday Club meet each Sunday in the Parish Centre during service. There is no Sunday Club on the 4^th Sunday in the month as there is a Family Service, which the children attend.

There are 3 classes that cater for children from the age of 3 years and this year we are following the Growing Together programme published by the Sunday School Society for Ireland. We currently have 30 children on our attendance sheets and each Sunday the children receive a star for attendance. As in previous years the children will be supporting "Fields of Life" with their contributions, which the bring to Sunday Club each week.

We can be contacted through the Parish Office.

This year, Sunday club will always be at 11:30 at the start of the service for approximately 40 minutes.

St. Thomas' Sunday Club

We meet on two Sundays each month in the Monk Gibbon Hall.

There are three classes which cater for children from the age of 3 years until Confirmation. We are studying "ON the Way" published by Christian Focus Publications.

Currently, we have 27 children on our attendance sheet. Each month we pray for the children in a specific country which we have marked on our map of the world in the Hall porch. We look after a flower bed in the church grounds and plant flowers and bulbs in it.

We commence with prayer, a short talk and then sing some choruses before going to our classes. The senior class studies a portion from the Bible, the other classes listen to a Bible story and then make, draw and colour some aspect of the story.

New members are always welcome.
