Families@4 is a new worshipping community at St Peter’s Church in Ipsley, Redditch. Throughout 2026, they decided to theme their programme around nature, the environment and learning about God’s creation and have created a community garden in which the children and their families are growing vegetables and flowers.

The Families@4 group meets at 4pm on the first Sunday of the month with a core of around 10 – 12 children attending. The session starts with songs, there is a bible study, which is sometimes acted out by the children, and interactive prayers as well as a craft suitable for all ages.

Assistant Curate, Linda Nicholas, said: “It started as something to invite our baptism families to and we’ve found that they’ve stayed, which is brilliant. In the past, we’ve done a different theme each month, but we wanted to create something which they could own and came up with the idea of a garden which fit with a year of focussing on caring for God’s creation.”
