Sunday Special

This is our group for children aged between 3 years and 11 years. We meet on the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays of the month, starting in the Church then moving over to the the hall for a time of teaching through stories and craft. We then return to the Church for Communion or the end of the service. We would love for your little ones to join us and learn more of the stories of Jesus.

Ignited Youth

This group is for our young people from 11 Years to 18 Years old. It is a safe space to come together to discuss life with Jesus using Youth for Christ as a basis for our leaders. This is open to all young people to come and find out more about their own faith. The young people meet in the Church service to begin at 10.30am then move to the outer vestry for their time together. Ignited Youth runs during term time on the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays.

Evensong

Evensong is one of the treasures of the Church of England—a service where scripture, prayer, and music weave together into something contemplative, spacious, and deeply beautiful. At its heart, Evensong is about offering the day back to God and resting in God’s presence as night approaches.
