Hay Lane South Braintree, CM7 3DY, United Kingdom

Messy Church meets once every school holiday or thereabouts. We advertise each event on our Facebook page and on our website.
Messy Church is based on the concept that we all lead messy lives, but that God can bring good out of our chaos when we trust him with it. Messy Church is run by a team of volunteers who provide craft, games and learning activities for all the family. Each session ends with a celebration at the front of church, where we look at what we have done and see how it fits together with our Bible theme. Sessions end with cakes and light refreshments and you can take home anything you have made to show to your friends and family.

Everyone loves Messy Church! Come and join us!
