Doing life together

Life Groups

Following Jesus together is at the heart of what we do at Life Church.

We believe God wants his people to live in genuine community. And while Sunday gatherings are a great place to be all together, they aren’t enough. To truly build deep friendships we need a smaller context where we can be church together.

That’s what we call Life Groups.

Life groups are our weekly small groups. They are the best way to get connected with others; to make friends, to grow in faith and learn together; to apply Sunday's teaching to real life, pray for one another and have fun together.

New this year, we have introduced Continuous Life Groups which run throughout the year (without the need to sign up each term). These continuous Life Groups allow for life to be walked together in a deeper way, as we pray, encourage and support one another as disciples of Jesus.

Some of our Life Groups will run for 10 weeks during a term, with a short break and then time to sign up again for the next term.

Sign up for new Life Groups opens on Sunday 8th September 2024. If you would like any more info on the groups please email hello@wearelifechurch.uk


 Kids & Youth

We love family and want Life Church to be the best place for kids and young people in Peterborough. We hold groups for preschool, primary and youth-aged children every Sunday. Please see info on what we can offer below…

Preschool

Pips & Shoots

Our smallest people are highly treasured at Life Church. Pips & Shoots is our fun Sunday morning crèche for 0-4s.

Our team is passionate about communicating the gospel to the very youngest at Life Church, helping them to meet with Jesus for themselves. In our sessions we enjoy games, singing, Bible stories and messy crafts.

Children must be registered and collected by a responsible adult.


Primary

GLO Kids’ Club

Do you like crafts, messy games, songs and stories? Looking for something to light up your Sunday mornings?

Join us at our FREE Kids’ Club GLO! GLO meets every Sunday at Thomas Deacon Academy and is aimed towards primary school-age children

Secondary

Life Youth

If you’re aged 11-18, you’re in the right place. We have a whole bunch of groups and events just for you.

Been a Christian all your life? Not even sure if God exists? Somewhere in between? Wherever you’re at, we’d love to get to know you. Whether it’s a chat, a chance to make new friends or somewhere to ask those big questions, Life Youth could be just the thing for you.


We take seriously our responsibility to safeguard children and vulnerable adults at Life Church and Life Community Trust. All of our teams working with under 18s and vulnerable adults have DBS certificates and undergo regular safeguarding training. 

Simone & Wouter Vertegaal

CHURCH PLANTing

In the summer of 2022, we have sent two leaders and their family from Life Church to the Netherlands to plant a new church in the city of Nijmegen. The Vertegaal family have been part of Life Church for 15 years and Wouter and Simone have both been involved in leadership - Wouter being an elder and team leader and Simone pioneering our amazing Kids Club GLO.

You can read more about their story of God calling them to church plant in the Netherlands on the website www.novionijmegen.com
