Morning Services
Our weekly Sunday worship services, start at 10:30 am. Everyone is welcome to join us!
Our informal style of service – The Gathering ** – takes place at the same time as our more traditional service – The Sanctuary service***. The whole church joins together after the services to meet for coffee and chat and for our Joint services*.
There is a Creche for Children under 4 years old available most Sunday mornings that meets in our Nursery (all our volunteers working with Children hold DBS certificates) – when no one is able to staff the creche it is open for parents to use with younger Children if they wish.
We also run a Junior Church (normally twice a month) for children aged 4+ upwards. The children and young people start off in the worship service before going out to their own groups. For more information, please speak to our Children and Young Families Worker – Sue Croft.
On the Sundays when there is no Junior Church, activity sheets are available and bags of toys for younger children please ask one of our welcomers.
*Joint Services
We meet together for worship for Communion once a month (Normally the 1st Sunday of the month) and at other times of the year e.g. Christmas, Easter, Harvest and during school holidays. These tend to be All-age services accessible for children, young people and adults often including, drama, creative prayers and hands on activities (e.g. making Christingles).

**The Gathering
The Gathering is a community of believers worshipping, learning, praying and supporting one another. We are a diverse group from all backgrounds and ages united by our faith and hope in Jesus.
The meeting involves contemporary worship, Bible teaching and a time to share and pray together. The teaching is designed to help us live out our faith in practical ways. We have a number of families and so we endeavour to engage them before they go to our junior church activities.
