Amen.

Room to Grow From September this year for an experimental period until next summer we will have two morning services, one at 9.30 and one at 11.30. The children’s work will be at 11.30 which will include live worship. This means there will be no evening worship, but we are holding monthly “events” which will cover a wide range of topical, and outreach events. For further information see the website or pick up the information on the welcome desk.
