Parish Worship (includes Holy Communion most weeks)- Sunday 9.30am

This is our largest gathering and includes term-time children’s groups alongside the service. The 1st, 3rd and 5thSunday of the month include Holy Communion; the 2nd is an all-age-all service where children and adults worship together; and on the 4th Sunday we make space in the service to connect with each other through discussion or activity. Music includes a balance of traditional hymns and contemporary worship songs. Refreshments always follow the service, making it a great service at which to get to know people. (Duration 1 hr)

Choral Evensong – Sunday 6.30pm

Our Choral Evensong is a well-loved traditional service using the ancient liturgy of the Book of Common Prayer. Our excellent choir and organist include traditional hymns, a choral anthem, and sung liturgy. You can join in with as much as you like, or just sit, reflect and enjoy. A sermon is preached every other Sunday. The alternate Sunday we offer refreshments and a bible discussion after the service for those who like to stay. We’ve found this pattern helps us to grow in faith and fellowship together. (Duration 45 minutes – 1 hr)

BCP Holy Communion  – Sunday 8am & Thursday 10.30am

This service follows the traditional words of the Book of Common Prayer (BCP). A brief sermon is normally included but no hymns are sung, making this a shorter service. On Sundays the service takes place in the small side chapel and is great for early birds, with a start time of 8am. On Thursdays the service is at 10.30am in the main body of the church and is followed by refreshments and chat for this who wish to stay. (Duration 30-40 minutes)
