Sunday Services 


08.00 Holy Communion

This is a contemplative, spoken service using traditional orders of service for Holy Communion, followed by coffee & croissants. The clergy are robed and the short sermon is often given by church members and local ordinands. Common Worship is used on the 1st, 3rd & 5th Sundays, and Book of Common Prayer is used on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month.


09.30 Family Service

This is a lively service with children's groups running from creche up to school years 9. The music is led by a band and the service begins with a time of sung worship for all ages. The children move to their groups after this opening part of the service. On the 1st Sunday of every month we have an all age service (with no children's groups) which lasts 45 mins, and the service includes communion on every 4th Sunday of the month. There is a Fair Trade stall after the service on the 2nd Sunday in the month.


11.15 Service

This is a quieter, more formal service following Common Worship liturgy with robed clergy, which alternates between Holy Communion on every 1st and 3rd Sunday, and Morning Prayer of the 2nd, 4th & 5th Sundays. The music is led by a small choir, an organist/pianist & occasionally other instrumentalists, and generally comprises congregational hymns, lyrical worship songs and other liturgical music. There is a Fair Trade stall after the service on the 2nd Sunday in the month.


6pm Service

This is an informal service with lively sung worship led by a band, vibrant teaching, and space for prayer ministry during or after the service. We share communion on every 2nd and 5th Sunday. After the service there are activities for SAYGO (young people in school years 10 to 13).

 

8pm Late Service (3rd Sundays during term time)

This is a quiet, contemplative service for an hour usually following the Taizé form of worship. Find out more here.
