GBC Youth
At GBC we are growing our youth groups as we see more young people join us on a regular basis. On Sunday mornings we gather together with everyone in the main church building, starting at 10:45, then after some time together, we head out to our groups for activities, chats and time together deepening our faith.
We’d love to welcome you if you are feeling comfortable to do so as well. Any questions, contact youth@gbchurch.org.uk
As a church we are Associate Members of WCCYM. They have been working with young people in villages west of Cambridge since 1992. There’s loads going on with them: youth services, socials, courses, residentials, work in schools, churches and the community. Most of their events and groups are for young people from school years 7 to 13. We and WCCYM believe Jesus is good news, and we’re passionate about sharing that good news with people. WCCYM are alsoinvolved in mentoring and pastoral work across the area.
To find our more about WCCYM and their work, visit their website.
