Be Our Guest and come along to the third event of our BIG WEEKEND.
Come, see and hear what St Andrew's church is about by joining us at at Sunday Service followed by tea, coffee and cakes and if you are able to stay longer a light lunch.
We will welcome you to our church service - worried about being on the last minute or running late - we will save you a seat. Worried about not knowing anyone, we are a friendly church and we will welcome you in and sit with you if you want. Worried about standing, stay seated. Worried about following the service - it is on a large screen. Worried about your children making noise, don't worry, we know children make noise. Worried about what to wear - come in what you comfortable in, no need to dress up unless you want to. Worried about singing - don't be, some of us haven't the best voices. Worried about hearing, we have microphones and a speaker system. Worried about the toilets - we have an accessible toilet with baby changing facilities and seperate mens and ladies toilets. Worried about parking - there is a large free car park. Worried about Accessibility - we are on one level and wheelchair friendly. Worried about the collection plate - it is on a side table with card accepted as well and doesn't come round the congreation so its entirely optional if you give or not. Worried it will be too religious - it probably will not be what you expect, we don't have pews, candles, incense, or kneeling cushions but we will be worshiping God and we will be delving into finding out more about who Jesus is and what he has done and why this matters to everyone. Worried you won't like it - there is always a possibility but come, see and listen because the Christian message is a challenge to everyone as it is often thought provoking and reassuring at the same time, even to Christians. Worried you are not a Christian - you do not have to Christian to come to church. Can't make today, we are here every Sunday with the service starting at 10.30am and you will be welcomed.
What happens and what to expect: you will be welcomed and you will meet people of all ages. During the service starts we have worship songs, prayers, bible reading and bible talk. Children from babies up to year 5 can go out to our creche and Sunday club part way through the service which is run by DBS checked and safeguarding trained volunteers.
