On the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month why not come for a cooked lunch and a chance to make new friends or see old ones? Lunch club runs 1-2 pm and costs just £3, for a main, pudding and hot drink.

(Meals are provided by St Richard's School, so we only meet during school term time).

On the first Sunday of the month, we have ‘Family Communion’ at 10.45am. This service is similar to the ‘Morning Worship’ service but includes the sharing of Communion. If you are a visitor, please don't let this put you off - feel free to sit and listen to the band, or go up to be prayed for by one of the staff team. The service usually lasts for an hour and a quarter.

Explorers is a lively club for primary school children aged 7-11, who meet on Tuesday evenings in term time from 6.30-7.45pm.

Each week we have a number of different activities, so there is something for everyone. For the first ten minutes of each session we choose between playing with board games such as Connect 4, Tumbling Monkeys or Twister, or doing something more energetic such as soft ball games. Then we join together for a themed talk which often involves audience participation! This is usually followed by some creative activity - arts and craft, cooking, or puzzles. We finish the evening with an organised group game.

Once in a while we do something completely different, such as a treasure hunt, party, or an outing (such as to the Pottery Cafe in Teddington or Feltham Tenpin Bowling).

We sponsor a guide dog puppy and get regular news on his progress.

Sessions cost £1.50 per child.

Holy Communion takes place every Sunday at 9am and is a traditional service of hymns, readings, sermon and prayers in contemporary language to accompany communion. Each week we focus on some aspect of the Christian faith and its relevance to the world in which we live.

Morning Worship is a relaxed and informal service for people of all ages, with talk and prayers, and worship songs and hymns led by a band. We are more than happy for children to stay with their parents for the whole service - we don't worry about noise! Optional Sunday Clubs and a supervised creche are available however, after the first fifteen minutes at most services for children between the ages of 0-10. The service takes place on Sundays at 10.45am and lasts around an hour.
