Church picnics

We had a wonderful first picnic last Sunday 14th June, following our church service. Thank you to all those who attended! We will be running another church picnic on Sunday 5th July, after our All Age Café Service. As before, please bring your own picnic, seating and any outdoor activities we can do together. Find all information on the flyer below.

Weekly Services:

This Sunday, we will be continuing our series on ‘The Church,’ looking at Acts 2:42-47 and the four key pillars of the early church. Livvi will be speaking on the second pillar, ‘Breaking Bread’ and Holy Communion. We will also be sharing Holy Communion together.
There will be groups for all children who are school year 5 and under. It will be serving Sunday for all those who are year 6 and older.
