This morning Jason commences our series examining what type of church we are.

Lauren leads our music and the kids conclude their sessions based around the Fruit of the Spirit with Chris and team after the first part of the service.

It’s great to see our new kitchen in operation with the Wave Café back in full swing. Today, our café crew are preparing Sunday lunch after the service—thanks be to God for food and fellowship.

If you need any help finding your way around the building or have questions about what makes us tick, then please feel free to ask one of the regulars—our welcome team wear lanyards and a smile, do say hello!

 

Next week, Big Church returns.

WHAT? We’ll be finding out about listening to God, through the story of Samuel, and how we can do this today.

HOW? Through God’s Word, music, drama, discussion, being still, moving, dance, creating, thinking, writing, not writing, watching, listening…and more!

PREPARE… Come ready to meet and be changed by God and grow in relationship with Him.

PRAY… That the Holy Spirit will inspire and challenge you and that Jesus will be the focus of all our worship.

 

Congratulations on your Engagement

Congratulations to Simon and Sharon who have got engaged whilst on holiday. May the God of love and peace abide in you both, guide your steps, and fill your hearts with his love, now and forever.
