Prayer Times


There are a couple of opportunities each week to join with others for a time of prayer. Monday Evening at 7pm and / or Saturday morning at 10am both in the lounge. It would be great if you could join us. 

 

Crafty Chatters

Do you enjoy craft? A few of us will be getting together to craft, have a chat and catch up over a cup of tea or coffee.  We meet on the 1st and 3rd Friday of every month from 7.30pm - 9pm.  If you are interested in coming along or want to know more, have a chat with Sue Rock or Ruth Evans.  

AGM Elections

At the AGM on Wednesday 27th September Andy Gibbs was elected as Elder and Paul Rock and Luther Vaughan were elected as deacons.  Steve Vaughan is now obliged to step down as deacon as he has completed 2 terms and under the church constitution needs to take at least a year off.  Please pray for these people in new leadership roles,  for wisdom and discernment as they make decisions for the church going forward.


Members Meetings


The next church members meeting in November will be on November 29th

 

 

Coffee Mornings and Service


The coffee mornings take place on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. We also have a monthly daytime service with traditional hymns and a short  reflection at 11 am on the fourth Tuesday of every month (with a cup of tea/coffee as well!). 

The next coffee morning will be this week on Tuesday 10th October.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

 

Where and When

The church is open for activities throughout the week but if you are just seeking us out it is likely that you will want to come and be a part of our Sunday worship which is core to what we are about.
We meet in the main church building (details here) at 10:30 each week. See our calendar to find out plans for the next few weeks.

Accessibility

There is wheelchair access and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There are disabled toilets in the main foyer and church lounge.

Our Sunday Services


Sunday morning services are structured but informal. They include a mix of both contemporary and traditional worship songs and hymns, prayers, readings from the Bible and a sermon that unpacks this. Occasionally we will also have specific updates about ways that God has been working through and in people and activities. Once a month we celebrate communion as part of the service. The last Sunday of the month is usually an Altogether Service when all ages are all together in one place for a more relaxed and activity based time of worship.

We aim to finish at about 11.45 to Midday when we serve free tea, coffee and cold drinks. This is a great opportunity to get to meet people.

Sunday Evening services, either in person or online, tend to be shorter and more reflective and are an opportunity to dig a little deeper into our relationship with God.
 

What about the children and youth?

We have a great programme for children of all ages, for more information about what happens please visit our Children and Youth page.

Getting Connected

 

Small Groups

It is often in smaller gatherings that we can really get to know other people. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some in the afternoon and some in the evening either in the church, in peoples’ homes or online    .
If you are interested in joining a Small Group, let us know and we can put you in touch with the small group coordinator who will be more than happy to find a group that is convenient for you and introduce you to the group leader.
