Where and When

We meet at the Church building (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 9am and then at 10:30am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 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 someone on our Welcome Team.

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 is a toilet at the back of the church.

Our Service

The 9am service alternates each week from a short Service of the Word led by one of our lay team, and a Book of Common Prayer service with Holy Communion, led by Reverend Tim. This is held in the Chancel.

The main service begins at 10:30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. The service varies each week, but will consist of a time of sung worship, prayer, reading from the Bible and a talk/sermon. The sermon is based on a passage from the Bible which we can apply to our everyday lives. 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. There is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service and time to speak to the leader or other members of the church who are there to help you. We also love to meet together at the back of the church to share fellowship over a cuppa!

There is also a mid-week service on a Wednesday at 10am. This is a Holy Communion service which takes place in the Chancel.

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 aim to have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Do contact us to find out more. 

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays (and other events) run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team. Just speak to one of the team about how to get involved.
