Sunday Celebration

9am and 11.00am Sunday Morning Services LGCC has two services every Sunday starting at 9:00am and and 11:00am. Our Sunday services last about 1 hour 15 minutes and include inspiring music and practical teaching. Whether you consider yourself to be a Christian or not we believe that you will have a great experience that will be helpful, practical and inspirational. On a Sunday we love to do four things: — Worship God through song — Celebrate what God has done — Relevant Teaching from the Bible — Encourage one another for what is ahead Each one these things is really important to us and whether you're here for the first time or a regular, we would love for you to join us for the service and refreshments afterwards! Children Our Kids Programme runs on Sunday at the same time as our main services. Spaces are limited so please arrive early to avoid disappointment. If there are no spaces available then children are still welcome in the main service! Youth Our Youth Programme runs at the same time as our main services. Please register your young person at the beginning of the service. There will be a youth designated area in the main service and after sung worship, years 7 to 11 will go to the youth building for a time of fun, reflection, discussion and prayer. See you soon.

The Pattern | Life of Paul

What does it really look like to follow Jesus—not just in belief, but in everyday life? SIGN UP HERE When we look at the life of the Apostle Paul, we don't just see a great leader or theologian—we see a man whose entire life was reshaped by an encounter with Jesus. His story is one of radical transformation, deep surrender, relentless mission, and unwavering faith. But more than that, his life reveals a pattern—a way of living that is available to every follower of Christ. Paul himself encouraged the early church with these words: "Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ." (1 Corinthians 11:1) This course is an invitation to do just that. Over the coming weeks, we will walk through key moments, themes, and lessons from Paul's life. We'll explore how his encounter with Jesus changed everything—his identity, his priorities, his relationships, and his purpose. We'll see how he navigated hardship, made courageous decisions, built others up, and stayed faithful to the end. But this isn't just about learning about Paul. It's about allowing God to shape our lives through the same pattern. Each week, we'll take time to reflect on Scripture, learn together, and apply these truths in a practical way. Whether you're just beginning your journey with Jesus or have been following Him for many years, this is an opportunity to go deeper—together.

We Are Scientists

We Are Scientists + Guests 7;30pm Wednesday 29th July, Club 85, Hitchin We Are Scientists is a New York City-based rock band that formed in Berkeley, California, in 1999. It consists primarily of guitarist and vocalist Keith Murray and bass guitarist Chris Cain, with drummer Keith Carne joining the band in the studio and for live performances since 2013. The band have released eight studio albums, not including their early release Safety, Fun, and Learning (In That Order), which the band have gone on to describe as more of a rough draft, than a proper album. The band’s breakthrough success came with their debut studio album, With Love and Squalor, which sold 100,000 copies in the first six months. This was followed by the releases of Brain Thrust Mastery in 2008, Barbara in 2010, TV en Français in 2014, Helter Seltzer in 2016, Megaplex in 2018, Huffy in 2021, Lobes in 2023, and Qualifying Miles in 2025. As well as music, Keith and Chris are known for their comedy, often injecting humour into their interviews, press-releases and off-the-cuff jokes at their live shows. This has been carried over as part of producing many of their own music video treatments and their 2009 series of television shorts Steve Wants His Money made for MTV, as well as a podcast series titled Dumpster Dive in 2020. This is not an experiment.

More about Hitchin Hill

Hertfordshire, England

Hitchin Hill sits quietly in Hertfordshire with a history that feels as old as the hills themselves. The British schools museum keeps things educational without feeling like a lecture hall on a rainy Tuesday. It is proper local knowledge right there in the town centre. There are always markets and festivals popping up near the main square, so you never lack for an excuse to wander out from home. Near Here has your eyes on what is going on, so you can skip the endless scrolling and just turn up.
