A warm hello!
The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.
Where and When
We meet at the church building (details here) for our two Sunday Services starting at 9am & 11am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by one of our friendly faces.
We serve tea, coffee and biscuits (and sometimes cake) after the service ends. It is a great way to meet people, and find out a bit more about us. All refreshments are free.
Please note that occasionally we will gather together as one service - such as Christmas, Easter and over the summer. Please check the calendar for confirmation.
Accessibility: There is wheelchair access and a disabled toilets close to the entrance.
Our Service
The main services begin at 9am & 11am and will last for around an hour and a quarter each. It will include some songs and hymns, Bible readings, a time of prayer (usually led from the front) and a message from a Bible passage - you can find our preaching program here.
We also celebrate the Lord's Supper together each month, on the first Sunday of the month.
What about my kids?
We have a tailored programme lined up for kids of all ages at both services.
9am service:
-
Beginners (Pre-school age). Children under 6 months are also welcome but should be accompanied by their parent/grown-up at all times.
-
Pioneers (Reception - Yr.2)
-
Explorers (Yr.3 -6)
11am service:
-
Pioneers & Explorers together (Reception - Yr.6)
-
Creche facilities will be available throughout the service but will be unmanned.
Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for first part of our service - usually around 20-25 minutes. We really value worshipping God all together as a family. The leader will announce that it’s time for the younger members to go to their various groups.
The kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is always friendly welcome, Bible stories, praying, craft, drama, fun games and free play. Children can be collected from their classes as soon as the service finishes.
Getting Connected
Small Groups
While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a couple of groups that meet on Wednesdays, morning and evening. Check out Bible Study Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
Other ministries
We also run the following ministries:
-
Pop in and play - play group for toddlers on Thursdays at 9.30am
-
Friday club for primary school aged kids on Fridays at 5pm
-
Youth Club for secondary school aged youth on Sundays at 3.30pm
