Children, Youth & Families (CYF)

Children, Youth and families work is a huge and important part of the growth of God’s Kingdom within the diocese. Children, Youth and Families has been recognised as the number one priority for the diocese and without a doubt the future of the church here is with our young people. Children, Youth and Families are gifts that need to be nurtured as part of a loving community. They need to know that the church is there and understand the problems that they are facing.
