ARISE AM

ARISE AM: Where women connect & flourish 2nd and 4th Wednesday, Term Time Arise AM is a beautiful space for women of all ages and backgrounds to come as they are, to feel welcomed and loved in a safe place, where we come together to seek intimacy with Jesus and connection with each other. Arise AM is a place where we desire to encourage, to build up and to enable each other to flourish and become all that God longs and has designed for us to be. We gather together for a time of worship, a short talk or discussion, and a time to chat while enjoying delicious refreshments as we reflect together. No need to book, you can just turn up on the door. So, whether you're an Arise regular or never tried a women's group before, sign up for more details and join us. We look forward to welcoming you! Ephesians 4 v 2-3 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

Alpha at Home

Curious about faith? Join a series of group conversations that freely explore the basics of the Christian faith in an open, friendly environment. At each Alpha session, you'll watch a short video on a different question of faith – then you'll have the chance to share your thoughts and hear what others think, as part of a small group discussion. You can say anything you like, or nothing at all. Everyone's welcome, no matter your background or beliefs. Drinks and desserts are included; it's completely free and there's no pressure to come back. This is an 8 week IN PERSON course (with an additional session on Saturday 4 July), running at Mel and Simon's home in St. Albans (sign up for the exact location).
