Youth

CHOSEN Youth Group (15-25) share what God is doing in their lives in a youth service at Worldwide Mission Fellowship on Sunday 24th January 2010.

God has made an impact and is continuing to challenge these young people in their neighborhoods, families, and schools. This is evidence of what God can do in this generation

Worldwide Mission Fellowship’s Boys Brigade (7th London Division) meets every Friday, starting at 07:30pm until 09:00pm at Virgo Fidelis, (147 Central Hill, London, SE19 1RS)

Boy’s Brigade is a dynamic and fun youth group that touches the heart of the community.  Boy’s Brigade is a combination of two groups, The Anchors, and the Juniors.

Anchors

What is Anchor Boys?

Anchor Boys is the youngest section in the BB and is for children aged between 5 and 8.

What do they do?

Anchor Boys have lots of fun doing different activities which include making things, crafts, music, games, sports, stories going on visits, making friends, and working towards their badges.

All of this is done as part of a balanced programme that is separated into 5 different zones . . .

• Body – fit for fun
• Mind – think and do
• Spirit – God and me
• Community – me and my world
• Creativity – make and do

Everything an Anchor Boy does helps them to develop and to think for themselves, in a safe environment.

What else do I need to know?

Anchor Boys have a special uniform that they can wear. As everyone wears the same thing they feel as though they belong. However nobody is excluded because they do not have the right clothes.

Juniors

What is Juniors?

Juniors is our second section and is for children aged between 8 and 11.

What do they do?

Juniors have fun! Their meetings are crammed full of challenges, games and activities, usually ones that they themselves have suggested. There are hundreds of activities catering for just about every possible interest. At the same time we try to encourage them to explore other new interests. There is loads of variety and little chance of becoming bored!

The award programme is specifically designed to encourage a child to look beyond themselves. Many are interested in one type of activity – perhaps sports, or natural history. Our special programme provides for such interests and at the same time gently urges them to try others of a different type. This provides a balanced all round programme – which includes spiritual and social input, as well as physical and adventure activities in 5 different programme zones . . .

• Body – fit for fun
• Mind – think and do
• Spirit – God and me
• Community – me and my world
• Creativity – make and do

Juniors will also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, theme parks or a farm. As well as possibly going on a weekend camp or holiday that is often the highlight of the year.

Juniors is about . . .

• having fun
• making friends
• enjoying lots of activities
• trying new things

Through the many different activities, Juniors will . . .

• learn about themselves
• get to know people and learn to work together
• explore their community
• personally develop

What else do I need to know?

Juniors have a special uniform that they can wear. As everyone wears the same thing they feel as though they belong. However nobody is excluded because they do not have the right clothes.

How long do they meet for?

Juniors offers a full and varied programme, typically lasting 1½ hours with a few if any individual activities lasting more than ten minutes. The weekly section meeting would usually be finished at 9:00pm.
