A welcoming space for all ages, to be met wherever you are, however you are feeling. A church full of opportunities to chat and chew over Bible passages—or simply listen and reflect. A place to dance during worship, create during reflection, or find quiet space to pause. A chance to uncover parts of a faith journey you didn’t know you needed.

Communion Meal

Occurring
Thursday 13 February 2025, Thursday 17 April 2025, Thursday 10 July 2025 at for 1 hour
Venue
Church House
Address
Church House, 6 Woodpecker Close, Northstowe, CB24 1AW, United Kingdom

During a Communion Meal, we share in the familiar opening prayers from a communion service as we gather around the table. We then "break open" scripture - reading the biblical account of the day, and then discussing it while we eat our main course (often jacket potatoes, with each person bringing and sharing a topping). Afterwards, we reset the table with bread, grapes, and wine... and turn to the Great Thanksgiving Prayer. We retell the story of the Last Supper, and share in bread and wine. This service is filled with beautiful poetry, and a deep sense of encounter with God and each other.

We hold a Communion Meal loosely once a term, sometimes replacing a regular Compline. We love to  invite those from across the whole Northstowe Church Network.
