Children and Youth Ministry

 

Welcome!


We are a church for everyone! As part of that, we love to welcome families to our services, groups and events. There are lots of different ways to get involved both on Sundays and at other times during the week.

Our hope is that through our activities that children and young people would have fun, build friendships, get to know Jesus and find out about God’s amazing plan for their lives.

Kids' summer fun

Children are welcome to Coventry Cathedral's free, fun weekly Let’s Grow sessions across August, with events looking at the environment. These include crafts & a teddy bears' picnic. Details here

What? A growth group for young people within the life of the church. We meet weekly to support each other in our lives and to grow in our faith in Jesus. We play games, read the Bible, take part in discussions, and pray. A highlight of Youth Cell is being able to go away together on trips and weekends away throughout the year.

 

Creche


Creche-Peace ChapelWe love welcoming young families into the life of Holy Trinity.

During both the 9:30 and 11:15 there is a self service creche facility available in the peace chapel, for families with preschool aged children. We ask that parents supervise their children while using the creche.

We know that young children like to make noise. But, should parents feel that their child is making too much noise that it is disturbing others, they are welcome to use the North Poarch, adjacent to the Peace Chapel, where they will still be able to hear the service.

 

 




There are lots of other activities for children, young people and their families that take place each year. These include, but are not limited to, family picnics, board game afternoons, craft events, courses, trips and seasonal activities.

Planning your Visit

Planning your visit 

 

A Warm Welcome.

Church front view-NightYou are very welcome to visit our 900-year old Church, whether to take in the history, to pray, to light a candle, to write a prayer request, or just to sit and have some space.

For visiting during the week

We are usually open for visitors and private prayer: Wednesday to Saturday, 11.00am to 3.00pm and Sunday, 12.30pm (after the morning services) until 4.30pm. Our welcome team should be around to greet you and take any questions at these times. 

To see the clergy (Revd Canon Richard Hibbert or Revd Carolyne Powell) , please contact the church office to make an appointment.

There is a Holy Communion service most Wednesdays at noon, lasting approximately 40 minutes and followed by refreshments.  It takes place in the Marler Chapel, which is within the main church building.

For visiting on Sundays

We have three services:

Though varying in style and types of worship, each helps us to explore and understand the love of God and what that means to our lives.

Over summer holiday periods and at special times, like Easter, Harvest and Christmas, we often change our Sunday services to bring the two main morning congregations (9.30am and 11.15am) together at 10.30am.

Please check our Church calendar to know our service timings.

Children

If you have children, pre-schoolers have their own carpeted  area with toys where you can sit comfortably as a family and still be part of the service. Primary and Secondary children may join an age-appropriate activity group for part of the service when announced.

Parking

There are council car parks in Salt Lane and West Orchard, a short walk to the church. Disabled parking is available on Cuckoo Lane (CV1 5RN), very close to the church, but from Monday to Saturday only (10am-6pm) requires an ANPR permit – available from the office. There is no general parking available at the church.

Please refer to our Church calendar or our Latest News letter to know What’s On.

We’d love to welcome you to any of the services listed here.  For more information on each of the church services and Who we are, follow the links below.
