Special Events
Regular Services

Messy Church

The idea of Messy Church is for children -accompanied by a parent or carer- to spend two hours having fun in a safe environment (see the picture in the picture gallery). Creative play, games etc. will fill part of the time and a simple meal will be provided. There will be a short time (approximately 10-15 mins.) in which Christian worship praise and learning will take place. The event is held on each 3rd Moday of the month in the Hall of the Curry Rivel School. Donations towards the cost of materials & food are welcome.

Not in August every third Monday at 3:30 PM for 2 hours

Church fete

This is the major annual summer activity, held on The Green. Much work is put into this event which gives a chance for the church to provide a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon of entertainment to the whole village. It is also a major opportunity to raise needed funds. To offer yourself to help with organising the event or assist on a stall, please contact 01458-251355 or 01458-250092.
