On Saturday 10th May, alongside the adult programme we are once again running sessions for those aged 12 and under. These will have a fun, holiday club style and we will learn about our awesome God through the life of Moses. There will be craft, games, Bible stories, snacks, and so much more!

‍

These sessions will be led by the Birmingham City Mission Children’s Team and we’d love to see you there.
