Hand sanitising gel will also be available, and please remember, it is currently a legal requirement to wear a face mask.

So whilst on the premises please observe the following:

Keep touching of surfaces to a minimum.
Use hand sanitising gel. (supplied)
Wear a face mask. (please bring your own)
No shouting or raising of voice.
Please exit the building promptly at the end of the meeting.

By attending the service, you are agreeing to abide by the above requirements.

We are so sorry, but due to Covid 19:
Children's groups are currently suspended. Please ensure your children remain with you throughout the service, and do feel free to bring them a book, or colouring activity for them to enjoy during the sermon. (no noisy toys please).

Planning your Visit

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 below) for our Sunday Service starting at 10:30am.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after the service. It is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free. (suspended until Covid up-dates)

Plan your journey:

Open Google Maps

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.

Our Service

The main service begins at 10:30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of worship. We typically have 2 or 3 songs lasting approximately 20 minutes. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. Sometimes people share things that they believe God is saying to the whole church family. This might seem strange the first time you hear it but it’s all part of our connecting with God. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.

What about my Children?

We really believe Children are an integral part of The Church and adapt and develop our Children's groups in line with Church growth.

Young people (15+ years) Stay in service.

Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for the welcome, songs and notices. We really value worshipping God all together as a family. At the end of the notices someone will announce that it’s time for the younger members to go to their various groups. You will need to go with your children to their groups and register them as part of our child safety policy.

The Children's group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, music, craft, drama, fun games and free play. Please pick your children up 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 are currently developing these in the context of 'a life worth living small group gathering',
'your new life unwrapped' and 'freedom in Christ'course.

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team.
