Church

Being a family friendly church means more than holding the odd family service.  It may involve a radical rethink of the whole range of church life.  How often do we encourage families to do things together rather than in separate age groups?  How far are we able to do things (and more than worship) together across the ages?  What programmes do we have in place for welcoming and reaching out to whole family units?

How can we help?

• A quick and easy audit which will help you to think about the ways in which your church is family friendly (see downloads).
• Analysis and a range of training for church leaders, whole church families and parents and carers. For further details contact families@scriptureunion.org.uk.
• To think through some of the biblical background to family.
• And for some really practical help on how your church can be more family friendly and minister to families, take a look at our Resources.
