Our next get together:

Each month we have a different focus for those interested. This time our focus is staying with the garden as we hosting our annual
Mini Summer Fair & plant stall (we still have some left to sell!).
There will be a variety of stalls as usual and hopefully a few fun games!
And if all you want to do is have a general chat, all the usual chit chat and friendship over a cuppa and a slice of lemon drizzle will certainly be on hand whether the sun puts in an appearance or not! We hope to be in and out.
Hoping to see you there.
We are continuing to stay safe by encouraging social distancing, the wearing of masks if you feel more comfortable using one and by the use of hand sanitiser stations. The hall is also thoroughly cleaned and sanitised just before you come.





Sundays at 9.30am...
Each week...
We meet together to celebrate our faith, encourage each other, share a simple commemoration of Jesus gift of his life for his creation in bread and wine, and pray for our community and our world.
Do join us as we explore the life of Jesus and his actions and ask ourselves what they can mean for us today.

Hi. I'm Jacqui and I head up a Junior Church for children 3 - 10 years as well as a creche area at the back of the church, and you are welcome to use it and sit with your children there and still enjoy the service, if you need to.


With the current situation we haven't been able to offer Junior church just now, especially in terms of availability of staff. Children are, however, welcome to sit with their parents and we keep the service with a comfortable level of informality. They are welcome to bring books and quiet activities. Please help them to join in as much as they can. We hope to start up again soon.
The creche corner is now also available again for use.
Would you like to belong to a church community but don't really know where to start?
Why not pop along to one of our once a month coffee mornings or join us after church from around 10.15am for a cuppa and a chat in the church hall? You can also pop into the church and see what it's like. We're really happy to chat with you about the church and our faith. You can also view our current services on line (see above). know that you'll always receive a warm welcome.
Looking forward to meeting you soon.

Now feeding up to 300 people a week.
A prayer for the people of Grenfell & all in a place of loss, worry and fear in Ukraine and neighbouring countries...

Father of all... We continue to remember the friends, family and neighbours, who continue to feel so keenly the loss of loved ones as a result of the Grenfell Tower fire on 14th June 2017.
(for latest information visit https://www.grenfelltowerinquiry.org.uk)
We also add to this the many, many families facing ongoing loss and particularly we remember the people of Ukraine.
We are thankful that Jesus did not run away from pain and disaster - his own or those around him.
A prayer
Jesus, because you faced everything we face we know that you understand what loss and all the pain that goes with it feels like. Be with everyone on their individual journey, bring them your peace where there are no answers and may your love soothe every area of pain they are experiencing and the hope of a brighter tomorrow.
We ask that in the words of Corrie Ten Boom, they would 'never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.' Amen.


Lots of questions about the Christian faith?...about prayer, what difference faith makes, and where Jesus Christ fits with it all? Or just feel like you've been round the block with it all already and need a fresh injection of inspiration and enthusiasm?
This slot will be updated once a term with a short film that explores what makes the Christian faith something worth taking a fresh look at - whether you consider yourself a Christian or not.
As we begin the journey into 2022 the well known Pastor, Tim Keller, who is currently walking through his own personally difficult times with cancer, shares with us some of his reflections about what prayer actually is and how we can learn to do it. He uses the book of the Psalms in sharing some thoughts to meditate on, in this short time. Our prayer is that this is inspirational to you wherever you are or aren't on your faith journey. May you find inspiration for your journey today.
Just click on the brown button Tim Keller: Discovering how to pray to enjoy this talk. If you need to ask questions about what you watch and hear in this clip feel free to contact us by clicking on the 'contact us' button and we'll respond. God bless .
