Book Club


The book club is taking a short break for the time being and is likely to resume in May.  Watch this space!
 

Bins


As you may be aware,  in the church porch , lounge and hall we now have three separate bins (one for general waste and the other two for specific recycling items)  When you dispose of rubbish, if you could place it in the appropriate bin we would really appreciate it.  We now have the same category of outside bins so it will be easier to transfer rubbish from the inside to outside bins if the correct items are put in the appropriate bin. Many thanks for your co-operation with this
 

The Greatest Show


This has now been rescheduled for schools for the last week of April and first week of May. 
A circus troop are travelling around from town to town performing their show, however every place they go to has been witness to something special just before they get there. Will the duo find a routine that will impress their audience? Who will perform “The Greatest Show?” Come along to our evening performance to find out.The public performance will be on Tuesday 7th May at 7pm .   Everyone is welcome!

They will be saying goodbye to Helen's mum (Pat) at 12:00 on Monday 22nd April at the Briwnant Chapel, Thornhill Crematorium. They would be glad of the support of Pat's friends and theirs.

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.
