We want to help you find the answers to any questions you might have; below are some frequently asked questions, but if we don’t answer yours, please get in contact, and we will be happy to help.
Children are welcome to all of our services. Our services are for all ages; however, you may be particularly interested in our Worship for All, Puppet Praise, & Fire Church Services. Our Churches are accessible to buggies and we have a range of books and soft toys to make your visit more comfortable
Visitors and newcomers are always warmly welcome at each of our Churches. If you have any questions about our worship, please do feel free to contact or speak to the Vicar. At the end of each of our services refreshments are served and they are a great opportunity to meet other members of our church family
There is no dress code at any of our churches, just come in what you feel comfortable wearing
Just bring yourself. Service sheets and hymn books are provided for all our services. We also have a number of resources to make the service more comfortable for young children
You will be welcome whenever you join us, be it once a year, once a month or every week. We have a variety of Sunday services at each of our churches
No. Although many from the congregation play an active role in our services, you will never be asked to do anything you do not want to do. We hope our four Churches will be a welcoming space for you to worship freely without any expectations
Holy Communion (also known as the Eucharist, the Mass, or the Lord’s Supper), can take many different forms across the Church of England, and it may be understood by Christians in different ways. Holy Communion takes the form of a shared meal of bread and wine, recalling the fact that, at the Last Supper, Jesus associated the breaking of bread and sharing of wine with his own imminent death, giving them special significance. Each time we share the meal Jesus shared with his friends, we remember his offering of himself on the cross, we rejoice in his resurrection from the dead, and look forward to the coming of God’s Kingdom
