Activities for children, teens and youth
All our activities for children, teenagers, and young people are organized under our local children and youth association, SFBU
Buffer
Buffer is our community for children and teenagers between 12 and 19 years old. We meet at the church every other Monday (odd weeks in the calendar) from 7:00–9:00 PM. We enjoy a mix of social activities — laughing, playing games, reading the Bible, praying together — and often sharing a little treat during the break.
Bigbuffer
BigBuffer is our community for teenagers and young adults.You can join BigBuffer once you’ve finished primary school or boarding school.We meet at the church every other Monday (even weeks in the calendae) from 7:00–9:00 PM.BigBuffer is held in English .
Children's church
On selected Sundays, there is Children’s Church in the church basement with our children’s workers, while the adults gather for the main service upstairs.
Keep an eye on the calendar to see which Sundays it takes place.
New Gospel Generation
New Gospel Generation is our gospel choir for children and young people. You can join the choir in August of the year you start 1st grade, and continue singing until the end of 9th grade.The choir rehearses every Wednesday from 4:00–5:30 PM.
Children's and youth camp
Every year during the autumn season, Sønderborg Free Church organizes a camp for children and youth. Children can join once they are able to manage basic things on their own (like going to the bathroom, etc.). Young people who want to take part are also very welcome – and the older you are, the more responsibility you get.
Youth Blessing
At Sønderborg Free Church, we offer a Youth Blessing instead of confirmation. During the year you are in 7th grade, we meet once a month on Tuesday afternoons for teaching. The teaching is free of charge and is led by one of the church’s pastors.
Teaching Camp
We are part of something bigger, and it’s a great gift for children and young people to have Christian communities beyond the local church.For those preparing for the Youth Blessing, we strongly encourage participation in the teaching camp during the autumn break, together with other teenagers from the Apostolic Church in Denmark.
National Opportunities
There are many opportunities and events for children, teenagers, and young people at the national level as well.
We encourage you to keep an eye on the AKBU and ActsGenerations websites for upcoming activities.
