Strobe

STROBE ON FRIDAY…..

Strobe is for students in Year 10 and above (15 years old +). Like most of the other groups we meet at the Sussex Road building. We meet on a Friday night from 8.30 till 10pm unless we’re having an outing or other special event.

Our Friday night sessions are mainly for fun and socialising. We make use of the facilities at church (pool, table tennis, table football, darts, uni-hoc, football, etc.) as well as providing time just for chilling and chatting. Other Fridays we go on outings - bowling, badminton, golf at the driving range, movie nights. Our church-based club-nights are usually free, but we do charge for outings.

Every now and then, we go on an away day or weekend away which is a great opportunity for everyone to get to know each other better and do some more unusual activities such as archery or climbing.

STROBE ON SUNDAY…..

For young people in Year 9 and above who are keen for more spiritual input, there are regular sessions on Sunday nights, 8 till 9.15pm at a leader's house, as well as opportunities to go to youth worship events in the area.

Our Sunday sessions start with drinks and nibbles and then move onto some spiritual food. The content of the sessions will vary, but we aim to meet the needs of those who come, whether they are new or established Christians, or those just wanting to find out more about the faith. Whatever the theme, we want to equip our young people to live for God in a sometimes difficult secular environment, so our Sunday nights will cover issues relevant to teens in an accessible, enjoyable way.

What the Young people think...

“What I most enjoy about strobe is the close group of friends I have formed there.”

“What I like about strobe is that I have a place to hang out with my friends and also be challenged to grow in my faith.”

What the leaders think...

“What I like about Strobe is the energy and enthusiasm of the people there, the friendship people show each other, and seeing everyone use their different talents.”

“What I like about Strobe is getting to see the young people use their gifts, and continually stretch and challenge the adults.”
