Club Lighthouse is the children's club of River City Church and is open to children of primary school age from all backgrounds and traditions. The Club aims to encourage the children towards a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. Each child is cherished and encouraged as an individual and taught that God has a purpose for each one of us.
The Club lighthouse team are made up of mainly young people each of whom is a committed Christian. The team operate under our Child protection guidelines and each year take part in a mission trip where they bring the club to another part of the country.

The Club was birthed out of the visit to the church in the summer of 2005 of a team of young people from California led by Pastor Chad Caubin and Irene Pereida. They showed us through music, drama and friendship, how to encourage young people that God cared for them and delighted in each one of them. They inspired youth from local churches to carry on the work and so the Club Lighthouse team was born!

 The club continued each Friday night and the following summer of 2006 a second team from California led by Denise Cetti built on the foundations laid the previous year, especially in Strabane. Local councils in Derry and Strabane have recognised the good work that the Club Lighthouse team had carried out in both communities.  

"Club Lighthouse" soon began to reach beyond the Friday clubs and into other churches, nursing homes and youth events. Over recent Christmas seasons the team have visited several nursing homes to sing and chat with the residents and to share with the elderly and sick the same love and encouragement ministered to children. Over several years the Club Lighthouse team have also travelled each summer to Wales to spend two weeks working with children and youth in a village community there. These visits have had a great impact on that local community. The team would like to expand this work and plant other 'Club Lighthouses' wherever the Lord opens a door for them.
