We welcome children to all our services. Children are also welcome to explore the children's corner at All Saints, with books, toys and crafts.
Services in church are now also live streamed, and there will be videos available on our YouTube channel and Facebook page. You can find all our online services on the Sermons page, and more fun for children on the More for Children page.

Messy Church is a monthly activity based service, usually on the second Sunday of the month, for all children up to the age of 8 years, and their parents and grandparents and carers. Children aged 9 and over can enjoy "Activity Time" in the church halls. We run from 3.30pm - 5pm in All Saints' church with lots of time for activities and crafts based around the Bible, which the children do with their parents and carers, followed by plenty of lively singing and a story. We end our time together with a tasty snack and refreshments for all. Children take home everything they have made. There is no charge but donations are welcome to cover costs of food and craft supplies.
We look forward to welcoming you to Messy Church. If you have any questions, please email children@sanderstead-parish.org.uk
