Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

Welcome to our Sunday morning service! We want to make sure you have a great experience during your visit, so we've put together some information for you.

Where and When

Our Sunday service begins at 10:30 am at our Church Building. If it's your first time, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to find a parking spot and get comfortable before the service starts. You'll be greeted by our Welcome Team and given a welcome pack.

After the service, we offer free tea, coffee, and biscuits. This is an excellent opportunity to meet others and get to know the community.

Accessibility: We want everyone to feel welcome at our church, so we've made our building accessible for wheelchair users and those who need a sound loop. If you require assistance, please let one of our Welcome Team members know. We also have disabled toilets available at the back of the church.

Our Service

Our service begins with a team member welcoming you at 10:30 am. We sing 4-5 songs during the worship time, and someone from the congregation will lead us in prayer. Then, a member will read a small passage from the Bible before the sermon begins. We share news and notices about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will deliver a Bible-based sermon applicable to our everyday lives. Finally, we end the service with a worship song. If you would like to receive prayer at the end of the service, you are welcome to do so.

What about my kids?

We have a great programme lined up for kids of all ages:

  •  Creche (0 months to 3 years). Children must be accompanied by their parents/grown-ups at all times.
  • Junior Church (3-11 years)
  • Catalysts (12-15)
  • Young people (15+ years) stay in service for now.

Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for the welcome, songs and notices. At the end of the notices, someone will announce that it’s time for the younger members to go to their various groups. You will need to go with your children to their groups and register them as part of our child safety policy.

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are great for meeting new people, it's in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have small home groups that meet once a month. Check out Small Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team. 

Other Ministries

We also run the following ministries:

  • Foodbank
