Holy Trinity Church, Claygate

Our Leaders are committed to being involved with kids' lives - from supporting them at extra-curricular events, to listening as they talk about what's important in their lives. Leaders help kids consider the direction they are heading in, and, through Christ, they offer hope for the future.
