COGS IS A Welcoming, Purpose-Driven Youth Community

Our youth ministry is a vibrant, relational space for young people to explore faith, grow in character, and build lasting friendships. Whether it’s midweek gatherings like EXP, the dynamic Lads Group, chill time at The Upper Room,
our monthly Girls’ Night, or Sunday morning sessions, everything is rooted in helping youth belong, grow, and lead.
We are all about walking with young people through every part of life — not just the spiritual, but the social, emotional, and everyday too. It’s not about pressure or perfection — it’s about authentic community, growing together, and finding purpose in Jesus.

BREAKTHROUGH JR

Lads Group – School Years 7 to 9 | 18:15-19:30pm
Every Tuesday | Fun. Challenge. Purpose.
This is a group just for lads in Years 7 to 9 — a place to hang out, make mates, engage, and grow into the guy you're meant to be.
We meet every Tuesday for all kinds of sessions:

Talk Nights – Real chat about stuff that matters (friends, stress, faith, school, relationships and more)
Challenge Nights – Games, team tasks, competitions
Skills Nights – Learn cool life stuff like cooking, fixing things, or how to stay organised
Social Nights – Chill out, eat, and have a laugh

It's all about helping you become a young man with confidence, character, and purpose — and discovering who God made you to be.
If you're in Year 7, 8, or 9 — this is your crew.
Come check it out. You might just find your place.

Lads group — School years 10 to 13 | 19:30-21:00pm
Every Tuesday | A place to belong, grow, and lead

This is a group built for lads who want more out of life — more challenge, more meaning, and more laughs. Whether you're figuring out who you are, where you're going, or just looking for a solid crew to hang out with, you're in the right place.

Our vision? Simple. We're here to help you grow into a young man of real character — someone who knows who he is, what he stands for, and where he's headed. Along the way, you'll learn life skills, get support, and be encouraged to discover the purpose and identity God has given you.

Each month includes a mix of sessions:

Real Talk Nights – Conversations about stuff that actually matters
Challenge Nights – Think team games, competitions, physical & mental tests
Skills Nights – Learn useful stuff like cooking, budgeting, fixing things
Social Nights – Chill, hang out, eat, and connect

As you move up into Year 11, we'll start giving you chances to lead — whether that's planning an activity, helping others, or taking on more responsibility. It's a great way to grow confidence, leadership, and real-world skills.

EXP

EXP – Your Midweek Reset | 19:30-21:00pm
Need a break in the middle of your week? EXP is your go-to midweek hangout – a chill space where you can have fun, meet new people, and be real about life and faith.
We’re all about building friendships and creating a community where Jesus is the focus – but don’t worry, it’s not about being perfect or having it all together. We’re figuring things out too. Whether you're curious about faith or already following Jesus, this is a place where you can explore what it means to live it out in your everyday life.
Think real talk, deep questions, and finding out how the Bible actually connects with the stuff you're going through.

Here’s what to expect:

Chill time with drinks and snacks when you arrive
Space to just chat and relax
A time of worship, teaching, and prayer that’s all about going deeper
And after the session? Hang out, grab another drink, and chat more

Oh – and we believe everyone has something to bring. Whether you’re musical, creative, love helping others, or still figuring it out – this is a space where you can discover your gifts and learn how to use them.

SUMMER FESTIVAL
Wild Fires, is our biggest event of the year – 4 days of camping, music, late-night laughs, games, and powerful moments of worship and prayer with thousands of young people from all over. Whether you’ve been to church forever or are just asking big questions about life and God – this is a week you don’t want to miss.

Girls group

Once a month | Real talk • Good food • Great vibes

Life can be a lot — so we’ve created a space just for you and the girls to unwind, be real, and talk about what’s going on in your world (or the world around you).

Whether you’re looking to make new friends or go deeper with the ones you’ve already got, this is your space to connect and just be you.

Over snacks and good food, we’ll chat, laugh, and support each other — nothing forced, just real conversations in a super chill, comfy home setting (yep, cosy sofas included).

Held at one of our amazing female youth leaders’ homes for that warm, relaxed vibe.

No pressure. No drama. Just Girls. Real Life. Real Faith.
Contact Anthony@wisleywithpyrford.org for more information.
