Jubilate, a benefice-wide service

All are welcome in these all-age inclusive services. Something a little different to our Sunday mornings and part of our shared life as disciples of Jesus Christ. The location is a different church in the benefice each time. In these afternoon services, typically 4pm on the 5th Sunday of the month, when that occurs. The service involves hymns and an activity related to a reading from scripture or the season or feast day of the church. We have a scratch / come and join choir for anyone who would like to be part of leading the sung worship. The choir rehearsal is for no more than an hour before the service.
