Our usual Sunday worship is a Eucharist (Holy Communion) service.
We have a group of retired priests who come to lead our worship on a rota basis so we enjoy some variations in our services depending on who is with us.
We always have 4 hymns, accompanied by music on CD as unfortunately we don't have a regular organist.
After the service we serve tea and coffee and everyone is welcome to stay and chat.

If you haven't been to a church service with us, then please do come along; we are very friendly and are happy to sit with visitors and help them navigate the service!
