Church Services
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we warmly welcome visitors to the Parish Church. Everyone is invited to join us for refreshments in the Parish Centre after the service.
If you have just joined us, here is some information about our services over a usual month which we hope you will find useful. All our 10:30am services aim to finish by 12pm but most of them are over by 11.45am.

Children join us at the beginning of the service before going out to the Parish Centre for their groups. They return before the end of the service to feed back what they have been learning. 6.30PM HOLY COMMUNION (according to the Book of Common Prayer).
