Online (Zoom) worship service

You are very welcome to join the home worship service live on Zoom using your internet browser. You can access this very simply by clicking on the "more info" bar, which is a web link. You don't need a camera on your device but it is nice if we can see who we are worshipping with. You will need to set the volume on your speakers so you can hear the worship leader and the musicians. Your microphone will be muted during the service but you are encouraged to chat before the service and to unmute yourself to join in with fellowship afterwards, too!

More about New Town

Devon, England

New Town in Devon has a name that suggests newness, but it's been around long enough to know exactly what we need without asking for directions. We've got plenty of local spots where you can catch a gig or grab a bite after work so you don't have to drive all the way into Exeter for dinner. Sometimes the best plans are made on impulse when you see a flyer for a comedy night or a family craft session near your home. Near Here keeps track of everything happening right here so you never miss out on the good times in our own corner of the county.
