We are a group of fun-loving 18-30 year old’s who love doing life together. We often go to lunch or for a drink together.
You might find us at a live jazz bar, taking a walk on Saturday afternoons, or playing football on Wednesday evenings. Whatever your interests are, we will be doing something you can join in with.
For any information on this group please contact hello@lifespringchurch.org.uk
Sunday evenings from 8pm at The Oasis or the Carey Centre (occasionally we meet offsite, please contact the team for details)
The 1830s group gives an opportunity for the young adults in Carey to meet together regularly on Sunday evenings.
Typically, on a Sunday evening, the group meets together to enjoy an informal time of fellowship over tea and biscuits. We also go on a weekend away each year which involves a mix of Bible teaching, collective worship, and exciting activities! Throughout the year there are various ad hoc gatherings to which everyone in 1830s is invited.
If you’re aged 18 to 39 we’d love to meet you – just turn up on a Sunday evening or email us to let us know you’re coming, or to arrange a lift. We’re very informal so feel free to drop in and out as it suits you.
Every other Wednesday evening, 6:30-8:30pm we gather together for a Student Bible study aimed at providing a space for Students to dig deep into God’s word together. These are held near the university campus and will start with an informal meal, then a bible study, sung worship and prayer in smaller groups.
We know evenings are precious for students and so we will finish in good time for the rest of your evening plans to roll on!
After each of the first three Sunday morning services of the autumn term, we host Student Welcome lunches. This is an opportunity for you to get together with other students and meet church members who are involved in student ministry; you’ll meet the student team who will give you a feel for what sorts of ministries Carey is involved in, and show how we’d love to bless you during your time at university.
During term time, we organise Student Lunches in the homes of church members each Sunday after the morning service. Student Lunches are an opportunity to connect with the wider church at Carey, for fellowship and food.
Sundays
On Sunday afternoons we gather together, either in family homes or centrally. It’s a great way to build together with other students and get to know people from across the church.
Midweek Student Group

We’re passionate about the growth and discipleship of our students. Over the coming university year we’ll continue to engage our students in church life. There are lots of ways to get involved as a student including: Small Groups, our 1:1 mentoring, social events, and giving to the Reading community through one of the outreach programmes.
To find out what’s happening this term, get in touch with Sam sam.brown@greyfriars.org.uk and join us on Facebook.
Young people in Secondary School and College/Sixth Form are welcome. We have monthly meetings where we speak openly and freely about the issues and challenges faced by many young people, provide a safe environment, build relationships and have a good meal.
United is our group for 14-18s. We meet approximately every 3 weeks, on Sunday afternoons, for lunch, games, and a Bible study. We want this to be a safe space and an opportunity to ask the tougher questions, or to cover anything that may not have been understood in the morning’s service.
Our aim for this older group is to help show them how they are united with Christ (if they are a believer) and therefore united as a church family. In an age where individualism is honoured and sought out, helping to instil unity and preferring one another over themselves is important. We’d like to create an atmosphere of openness, hospitality, and treating them as young adults as they begin to consider their futures.
