It is a great place to share experiences, encourage each other and form close friendships and relationships and of course tea and coffee is involved too! We have lots of different connect groups meeting throughout the week.

kids
son seekers
On: Sundays, 11am – 12pm
At: Tenerife Family Church in Silencio
We believe children of all ages and abilities hear from God and can experience
Jesus on their own level, so in Son Seekers children under the age of 14 are given space and time to learn more about Him and how to recognise his voice. Using a variety of story, song, drama and games, interactive bible teaching is delivered followed by a time of practical application and sharing. We always leave space for a prayer and encounter time at the end, followed by a time for the younger children to choose from a range of craft and play activities which re-inforce the key teaching points. Our sessions are flexible, safe and age-appropriate.

An event for families with children up to the age of 12 years old where we get very messy and participate in all those messy craft activities that you don't like to do in your own home! Each session typically includes a welcome, a long creative time, a short celebration time involving story, prayer, song, games etc delivered by our youth-workers and a sit-down meal together at tables. All elements are centred around a specific bible theme and are appropriate for people of all ages, adults and children. Messy Church is a church for people at all stages of their faith journey and of any age and families that are not typically part of Tenerife Family Church are very welcome. There is a suggested donation of 1.50 euro per child.
