Messy Church is a vibrant, family-friendly gathering that combines creative crafts, engaging worship, and a shared meal in a fun and informal setting. Held monthly, it’s a wonderful opportunity for families to come together, enjoy activities, and strengthen their community bonds.

Prayer is at the heart of our Christian life, helping us connect with God and with one another.

Our Prayer Group provides a peaceful and supportive space to come together in prayer, giving thanks for God’s blessings and bringing before Him the needs of our church, our community and the wider world.

There is also an opportunity to reflect, share concerns and pray for those facing difficulties or needing comfort and encouragement.

You don’t need to feel confident praying aloud. Whether you wish to contribute or simply sit quietly and reflect, you are equally welcome.

For many people, losing someone they love is one of life’s most difficult experiences. While the world around us continues to move forward, grief does not follow a calendar. Whether a loss happened a few weeks ago, several years ago or even decades earlier, the memories and emotions can remain just as meaningful.

The Service of Light and Hope is not simply for those who have experienced a bereavement during the past twelve months. It is for everyone who has lost someone special, no matter how long ago that loss occurred.
