Youth

A generation given to Jesus! In a day and age where there are so many different things telling them how to live and think, we aim to show them what Jesus says. It is our heart and motivation that youth would discover and know for themselves how Jesus sees them, how much He loves them and what their identity. Ages 11 to 18

Sunday Gathering

Come and experience Jesus' presence as He gathers His people! Our meetings begin at 10:30am with Café Church. A time to meet and connect over a brew and a few snacks. Our worship begins at 11:00am where we focus on ministering to God by speaking well and thanking Him. God loves to respond to His people and regularly speaks through prophetic words. We break bread every week and during this time honour Jesus with our tithe and offerings. Around 11:45am we normally have announcements and a time for parents to take their kids for Kids group. From around 11:45am the word is preached while Kids group is on downstairs. Around 12:25pm we close the meeting and parents collect their children. Once the meeting is closed we encourage people to continue talking and use the downstairs Café area. https://allnationsoldham.churchsuite.com/events/nnpxmyib

Place Of Welcome / Warm Space

St Gabriel's Church opens its doors every Monday morning from 9.30 till 12.00 to invite people from the community in to our building to enjoy a free drink and refreshments. This is not just for church members but for everybody in the neighbourhood who would like to come along. We hope that people will come along to socialise and just enjoy each other's company. During the morning we aim to provide simple entertainment such as a quiz sheet, some armchair aerobics, bingo, craft activities etc. We are sure that some of you may even have your own skills to share! However, none of these are obligatory - you may prefer to just sit and chat - and that is perfectly fine! There is no charge for anything - our aim is just to offer a warm and safe place where people feel safe to connect, belong and contribute. Do join us! If you would like to come but you are struggling to get there, please call one of us and we will do what we can to arrange transport for you. Contact numbers: Sandra Kiy Sheila Kenyon
