Little Lights is a group for local babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers with their parents and carers.

You can expect lots of toys, activities and fun. There are snacks and drinks available and a time for songs and a Bible story to finish. Hot drinks available for grown-ups.

Free and no need to book.

Free parking on site.

Every Wednesday in term-time 10-11:30am.

The 9am service is a more traditional said "liturgical" service (ie using official wording and responses) and we will receive communion (the bread and wine). All the words are on the screens. We usually have a couple of hymns and we use screens and PA system to play them and to sing to. We are receiving communion by our seats via "intinction" which means the priest will come round and dip the wafer in the wine and give it you.

Refreshments are served after the 9am service in the church and before the 1030am service.

If you prefer a more modern feel to the service, please do join us at 1030am.

You are invited.

There is no dress code, there will be people to welcome you on the door if you don't know what to do, there is some parking on site. Almost every week we have people who are new to church so if you are not used to coming to church you will not be the odd one out and lots of our church have been part of St Francis for under a year.

The service lasts about an hour and ten minutes with kids and youth going out most weeks to groups. There are prayers, songs, Bible readings and a talk. There is tea and coffee beforehand from about 10am. Once a month we have communion in the service (receive bread and wine as Jesus called His followers to do.)

This is our more modern service at 1030am, if you prefer a more quiet reflective service do join us at 9am.

Church for those who are new to church aimed for people on Mackworth estate

This is a relaxed service for about 35 minutes, with a couple of modern songs, some prayers, a bible reading and a talk that seeks to connect the truth about Jesus to our day to day lives.

We try not to take ourselves too seriously, but we take Jesus really seriously!
