St Stephen’s church in the heart of Norwich will once again be hosting a Community Festival between the 11th September and the 6th October. This year’s theme is "Live Creatively Friends” (Galatians 6:1, The Message). During the Festival, the church will be hosting an art exhibition provided by artists from the Norwich 20 group, together with opportunities to be creative yourself at a series of art workshops. The cafe will be open as usual on Monday to Saturday between 10am and 3pm serving its usual selection of fair-trade drinks and tasty foods and cakes. There is no admission charge so why not come and experience our peaceful and creative surroundings?

Renew spaces are simple cafe style spaces run by local churches where hobbies and activities are shared or co-produced. Each cafe space is attached to a quiet room or prayer space where inner habits of wellbeing are shared. Each church partners with a mental health professional from the local council or other suitable organisation to ensure good inclusive practices for safe spaces where it's OK not to be OK can be sustained.

Being prayerful • Being present • Being in partnership
