Other Activities
Here are the other groups and activities that are part of our church life
Look Out Groups
We see these groups as a vital part of the Church for fellowship, study, personal support and growth. The groups meet in peoples homes on a weekday evening. Friends from other churches are welcome to join one of the groups.

Afternoon Tea
These are held on alternate Wednesdays in the lounge at Sutton Close and are an opportunity for residents from Sutton Close to meet together for fellowship and a brief Christian "thought for the day."

Sunday Club
Children are a really important part of our Church family. Each Sunday morning there is something planned for all children. Once a month everyone stays in church for an All-Age service. On the other weeks, after starting in the church, we go out for our own activities in Sunday Club. We use resources from Energize by Urban Saints and from Scripture Union to have age-appropriate activities for all from toddlers up to early teenagers.

TGI Youth Group
Our youth group for school years 7 to 11 meets on Friday evenings in term time between 7.30pm and 9pm. We aim to provide a safe space for young people from Church and non-Church backgrounds to interact, play games and hear a short 'thought for the day' from one of our leaders. We have an informal style with games, music and a tuck shop. Feel free to turn up or contact us for further details if required.

Craft and Chat
Why not join us on Wednesday afternoons between 1.30 pm and 3.30 pm (or any time in between). Bring your own craft and enjoy the company of our welcoming group whilst you knit, sew, stitch, or crochet. Any other portable craft would be welcome too!
We find crafting together enjoyable as there is lively conversation and advice is always on hand from one member of the group or another. We work on our own projects and also we pool our efforts to provide many items for local charities to use or sell. We have supported the Leicester Hospitals Charity, Loughborough Town of Sanctuary, Vista, Rainbows and a Children’s Centre in Africa. Items have included baby or toddler cardigans, jumpers, hats and gloves plus adult items such as hats, scarves, blankets and twiddle muffs. If you don’t like craft hobbies then why not join us for the chat!
We are a welcoming bunch of people and complimentary refreshments are offered too. You don’t have to sign up and there is no fee - you can come every week or just drop in – we will be pleased to see you!
Join us on Wednesdays 1.30 pm – 3.30 pm at Quorn Baptist Church – follow the signs on the gate. Latest list of dates here.
It is FREE.
For more details, contact Quorn Baptist Church on 01509 621106 or telephone Jean on 07733365629 or Norma on 07724137036

Holiday Club
Together with St. Bartholomew's United Church we run a Children’s Holiday Club in the summer holiday. Although it is mainly aimed at Key Stages 1&2, we find that many older children want to carry on coming. We have loads of fun, including games, stories, challenges and making things, all focussed around a theme based on Bible stories.

Women's Activities
There are regular events and activities held for the women of QBC and their friends. We usually hold one “big” event each term which has included a meal out, craft or themed evenings with a short talk at the end by a Christian speaker. Once a year we hold a retreat day where we are able to spend time getting to know God and each other better. For more details contact the church office – all women are very welcome to join us.

Men@QBC
This is a social group for the men of the church plus our friends and colleagues. We have two or three main events during the year, normally involving food! In addition various activities are arranged from time to time that appeal to a smaller number of guys - usually something of a more sporting nature such as 10 pin bowling, cycling or walking.
