Sharing Church - a New Service

for 1 hour, 30 mins
Saxthorpe with Corpusty: St Andrew
The Street Saxthorpe Norfolk, NR11 7DG, United Kingdom

Join us for Sharing Church—a new, interactive style of worship where faith, fellowship, and food come together. More than just a service, this is a chance to connect, reflect, and share in a relaxed and welcoming space.

Our second gathering is on Sunday 27th July at St Andrew’s, Saxthorpe.

We’ll start at 10am with tea, coffee, and fresh pastries—because good conversations often begin around the table. At 10:30am, we’ll move into a time of music, prayer, and Bible reading, all centred around our theme: Prayer

Probably most of us have prayed at some point in our lives. But what about when nothing happens? Does this mean prayer doesn't work? Come and discuss this over tea/coffee and croissants...

Whether you’re a regular at church or just curious, come as you are - We’d love to see you!
