We know that a lot of people new to church or who have been away for a while will have questions hopefully your questions are answered below. If not please contact the church office.
What is a service?
‘Sunday services’ are regular times where people gather together to connect with God and with others; an act of worship. This can take many forms, and usually includes someone praying out loud or everyone praying silently, lots of singing, by choirs and everyone. We also do lots of listening, for example to the Bible being read or to someone talking, often using pictures, music and creative activities to help us to explore how to live out our faith. Through all that listening we also begin to hear and understand what God wants for us. Often churches hold more than one service on a Sunday and each may have a different ‘flavour’. You are always more than welcome to any of our services.
Can I bring children?
Yes, children are welcome at all of our services. Some weeks the service has more to cater for children, and other weeks it has a more traditional flavour with more periods of quiet. Please see the Youth and Children page for activities.
Am I allowed to sit anywhere?
Yes, all of our pews are open to everyone. If you have children we also have a childrens’ area, which you are free to sit in for the whole of the service or move to during the service, if that is a more comfortable space for you and your family. There are quiet toys and colouring activities available, but we encourage children to take part as much as they can in the service. That’s when the noisy toys/instruments take over!
If you have any other questions please contact the church office or Minister.
