Revival Youth Congregation

Revival is the Youth Congregation of St. John's Church in Woodbridge. We are an assorted bunch of young people who are getting to grips with the world we inhabit, getting on with each other and with trying to understand what God is all about and what he means for us. During the course of each month we organise and run a range of activities and events. But more importantly we spend this time building quality relationships with each other and with God.

Purpose Statement

revival has a purpose statement that helps us remember what we are trying to achieve. All the events run at revival seek to achieve one or more of the following and all members are encouraged to live these out in their lives.

Love God (Worship)

At revival we want to follow God who loves us and cares for us through worshipping him, receiving from him and giving our lives to him

Love One Another (Serving)

As Jesus served others so we want to show our love to one another through helping each other and serving them

Love the Lost (Evangelism)

This might be a new word for you but basically we believe that the message of Jesus (God’s love for us) is so important that we want to tell other people about it

Love Life (Socialising)

We want to enjoy life and we want people to feel part of revival. What better way than by hanging out together

Love the Word (Discipleship)

This might be another new word. We want to learn how to follow God by looking at his instruction book (the Bible)

Cells

Cells meet on Sunday mornings in term time, 11.00am – 12:15pm in St John's Church Hall. We meet as small groups, exploring what it means to be a Christian, chatting, making friends, praying, looking into the Bible and having a laugh - not necessarily in that order! It is hoped that a cell in the Old Vicarage for young people who come to the 9.00 am service will start at Easter 2007.

Vision

Vision is our regular service - in St John's Church on the second Sunday of each month, 7 - 9.30pm. It gives us the opportunity to meet together as a congregation and invite others in order to spend time worshipping God and receiving from him. We also spend some time in teaching often with visiting speakers. We deck out St. John's church turn the lights down low and turn the Revival worship band up. We finish the evening off by opening the café and letting the DJ work the music.

Rock Solid

Friday evenings, 6:30 – 8:30pm, in St John's Church Hall, for those in school years 7 to 9 ! A chance to chill out with Playstations, craft, games, music, tuck shop, cooking, trips and the opportunity to talk about God stuff and other issues to do with school, friends and life in general.
