Students and Young Adults
Here at JMC, we love Students and Young Adults. A portion of our family at JMC is made up of students from both Universities here in Newcastle, students who have go on to stay in Newcastle after graduation and young professionals who have all found JMC to be a welcoming and comforting place. They are a well-loved and valued part of the family here.
Our aim is to guide and encourage our students and young adults as they seek to grow in their personal faith and learn what it means to follow Jesus.
Our Student focused 'house' group meets, during university term times, every 2nd Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 pm in one of the upstairs rooms above 1901 and we spend time together reflecting on our weeks, reading the Bible together and discussing the effect of the chosen passage in our lives.We also bring our struggles with our individual faith to the group and support each other as we journey through this point in our lives together. We believe that this is a really safe space to bring all our own thoughts and questions. In addition to this, we meet for socials and go on outings in and around the northeast together.
We also encourage all to get involved in the morning service each week so they can develop their different gifts. There are opportunities for them to share their talents on Sundays and beyond. Our service are run by various teams which anyone is welcome to join: such as worship band, tech team, JMK & Youth teams, Preaching & Host Team, hospitality teams & more.
We are a friendly and loving community made up of people of all ages and backgrounds and all students and young adults are welcome at JMC regardless of your background, or which University you belong to. So no matter who you are or what position you are in, you will be welcomed here at JMC.
Our House groups are made up across the different generations of the Church and meet every two weeks. We encourage students and young adults to get involved in whatever suits their timetables best. There are 4 evenings groups and a student-focused Wednesday afternoon group
