Sparks & Messy Church

At St Nicholas Church, Ash

The Church is a place where ALL are welcome, and that means we love to see children come along and be part of everything we do. Sparks is our children’s group which runs in the side chapel of St Nicholas Church in Ash during the service. Messy Church is our monthly after school club.  We bring fun, chat, craft and basic teaching about Christian values and Bible stories. After Sparks the children then join the rest of the church family for the end of the service and refreshments after. The service lasts for approximately 1 and a quarter hours and starts at 10.30 each week. Stay for squash and biscuits afterwards!  At Messy Church we provide hot food.
If you’ve not brought your children to church before, perhaps this is the time to start. We would love to welcome you all. If you’d like to know more, please contact: canonryvicar@gmail.com for more information
We hope to welcome you soon.

All ages are welcome but for under 3s we do ask a parent/guardian to join the session too.

All our volunteers receive safeguarding training.

Light Party!

At the end of October we had a giant celebration with the children of Ash from the church and the local community. Plenty of games and fun were had, with light themed arts and craft to go alongside. Thank you to everyone who came and made it such a lovely time – we can’t wait to see you next year
