Messy Church : What is Prayer ? – Saturday 6th May
The first Saturday of the month is nearly here, so we hope you can join us for another Messy Church on May 6th.
This month we’re thinking about “What is Prayer?”. Prayer is an essential part of the Christian faith, and as usual, we’ll be exploring it through our mix of Fun, Faith and Food with Craft, Stories, Songs and, of course, Prayer !
The kitchen team are planning jacket potatoes, cheese & beans, bread & butter followed by treacle tart and custard. We do hope you’ll be able to stay and join us to eat together.
We hope to see you there !

Messy Church : What is Easter ? – Saturday 1st April ’17
The shops are filling with chocolate eggs and bunnies. Apparently it’s all to do with Easter – but what is Easter, and why do we celebrate events which happened nearly 2,000 years ago anyway ?
The first Saturday of the Month comes round early this time, so please join us on Saturday 1st April to explore “What is Easter ?”. As well as our normal mixture of Fun, Faith and Food, we’re delighted that we’ll be joined by our old friends from Word Puppets.
We’re also giving you advanced notice of our special Family Service on Good Friday Morning – April 14th – at 10:30am.
Hope to see you soon !
