Welcome to St George's Youth, here you will find all the information surrounding what we have going on for our 11-18s.
Our vision here at St George’s Youth is about equipping our young people to be a generation of disciples who live for Jesus in an increasingly challenging world. We strive to give our young people the tools they need to become lifelong disciples of Jesus.
For us in the youth ministry we believe that God can and will meet with: Everyone, Everywhere, Every day. No one is excluded, nowhere is too far.
St George’s Youth provides a discipleship pathway for young people throughout school years 7-13, growing them into confident and strong disciples who are rooted in God’s Word, the Bible.
Details of regular activities are below and key dates for 2025-26 are available here.

Ignite

- Mondays 6:30-7:30pm
- St George's Church Place
Ignite is our weekly Bible for those in years 7-9. Following a book of the Bible, or series on a theme, we seek to understand the passage and work out how this applies practically for our lives today.
We offer tips and tools for the young people to help them start to build habits of daily bible reading and time with God.
Forge
- Years 10-13
- Monday 7.45pm-8.45pm
- St George's Church Place
Forge is our weekly Bible study for people in years 10-13. Similar to Ignite we follow a book of the Bible, or series on a theme, to understand the passage and work out how this applies practically for our lives today.
Our aim is that, as young people move out of youth into adulthood that they will be confident studying the bible on their own, and even able to lead others.
