The fastest growing and most exciting church in Stoke on Trent is here to stay in Trentham.

In June 2009, Bethel City Church's Campus:Tretham was born and has gone from strength to strength ever since then. BCC is a significant part of this phenomenal suburban community. Members of this congregation are integeral to the running and operation of local Resident Association Groups and Steering Group Committees in the community and local Trentham residents are really enjoying engaging with neighbouring BCCers. You'll also find BCC represented at every community and school fair that there is going, so make sure you look out for the BCC stall.

Bethel City Church operates from Ash Green Primary School every Sunday afternoon from 2:15pm for our 'Burbs Family Congregation. Ash Green is located on the Lea, off Brough Lane (ST4 8BX.) You'll need to arrive early to get your seat for this one as the school hall facility is packed to the rafters each week with familes praising God and enjoying church like they've never experienced before. 'Burbs Family is unique to Bethel City Church. Families are gathering together every Sunday for the most fun filled hour that they will spend together all week. 'Burbs family is a gathering that you can enjoy with your children, whatever their age.

In fact, the praise and worship is led by the children from the front. With help from the BCC band and the City Kids team your children will be bouncing around with an inflatable guitar and pom pom in no time. Sit them down during the preach and you'll be amazed by how well our leaders and pastors interact with you and your children during their 15 minute preach. The message will be so inspiring, we guarantee that you'll leave feeling on top of the world, in love with your family and in love with your God.

'Burbs Family gatherings will leave you and your children wanting more. We always schedule plenty of time at the end for a delicious cup of tea or coffee and your favourite cake or snack prepared fresh by C1ty Cafe . Hang around for a chat with one of our pastors as your children go outside or into a nearby classroom with our City Kids Pastors. All our City Kids Pastors have undertaken CRB checks and have undergone BCC's Child Protection Training so you can be sure that your children will be safe.

On the subject of your children, why not check out our phenomenal City Kids programme, tailored specifically to Primary School children. City Kids regularly run holiday clubs and events for children right here in the heart of Trentham as well as all over the city.

If you're too old for Primary School, then don't panic! 'Burbs Family is not only child-friendly but very teenager-friendly too. You wont have to search for too long before you find one of our dedicated City Youth Pastors who will go out of their way to hang out with you, make you feel at home and also tell you everything there is to know about our City Youth programme.

City Youth run an event every Saturday in Trentham Community Sports Centre called Activate. Every Saturday from 1 - 2pm, City Youth host the most action-packed, exhilerating, fun-filled hour that you will experience anywhere else in the city. Grab your trainers and find out whether or not you have what it takes to be a next generation sports star.

However, things don't have to stop at High School age. BCC hosts a number of events and activities in the community for adults. We run fortnightly City Life Pods, do life together in local pubs and restaurants, as well as hosting regular socials and BBQs for the whole family!
