general information
9:30am
We try
to provide a service of
Holy Communion every
week.
This
service is
held in the side chapel. It is a
formal approach to the Common Worship
liturgy, it is both warm and friendly. The singing
is usually unaccompanied, but the organ is used from
time to time.
At the
end of this service refreshments are served in the
church. On the
infrequent occasions when Holy Communion cannot be
celebrated, The Service of the Word is used.
11am
First
Sunday in the month : Holy Communion
Second, Third and Fourth Sundays : Service of the
Word [Third Sunday All Age]
Fifth Sunday : Service of the Word : All age
This service
is
held in the nave. It follows the seasonal liturgies
from Common Worship, in a less formal and
freer style, in which all members of the church can
contribute.
Sometimes this service time can be used for
experimentation -
'doing church differently'. A variety of musical
styles, often utilises a mix of live and recorded
music, sometimes unaccompanied.
At the
end of this service refreshments are served in the
church. During this time, there may be people available
in the side chapel to pray for and with anyone.
