Youth Work at St Andrew's Church, Histon

EDGE is the name for most of our youth work. On this page you will find information about the groups we run regularly. For more information about our youth work, including up-to-date times and locations, please contact the office.

Youth Work Registration Form

It is essential that every young person who attends our youth work activities has registered with us. By registering, parents/guardians give the necessary permissions for their child to attend and provide essential contact details. If your young person would like to attend our EDGE groups please complete a registration form by following this link: Youth Work Registration Form

Regular Groups

EDGE Sunday

Sundays, 10.30am at the Saint Andrew's Centre
For anyone in school years 7–13

At EDGE Sunday we spend time learning from the Bible together. We generally start with a game that everyone can join in with and an icebreaker question that helps us get to know each other. Then we look a Bible passage on a particular theme and consider another question in discussion groups. These discussion groups are a key part of our EDGE Sunday sessions, we use them to create space to think about what this all means for our lives today and opportunities to ask honest questions. If you’re interested in spending some time thinking about the Christian faith and how the teaching from the Bible is relevant today, then this group is for you!

To help create the best possible experience, we ask young people to book to attend EDGE Sunday. Please contact the office for more information (who will also confirm if we're running EDGE Sunday, EDGE Breakfast or attending church that week).

EDGE Café

Thursdays, 3.30pm at Saint Andrew's Café
For anyone in school years 7–13

Drop in to EDGE Café after school on a Thursday afternoon. Bring your friends along if you like, or come to meet new people. Our youth leaders will be there to greet you from 3.30pm. The café will serve until 4.30pm and closes at 5pm. EDGE Café is a space to chat and play games together. We'll have a range of games on the café tables for you to choose from. I'm sure we'll also play some of our favourites including Avocado Smash, Uno Flip and Kahoot. Don't forget to bring some money with you if you'd like to buy a drink and/or cake.
