What to Expect
During our time together we sing, read from the Bible, share encouragements, listen to teaching straight from the Bible, take communion and pray for the city and for one another.
Our meeting starts at 10:30 and ends around 12, when we grab something to drink and catch up with our church family. If it is your first Sunday with us, be sure to introduce yourself to our guest team (if they haven’t said ‘Hello’ already). Fill in the form at the bottom of this page if you’d like to let us know you’re coming.
Coming with Kids?
Children and young people are an important part of our church family. We want Sundays to be relaxed, welcoming and enjoyable for the whole family as we learn about Jesus together.
We begin in the main hall with everyone worshipping together. After the first few songs, children and young people can join activities prepared for their age group.
