Salt and Light: Command or Commend?

In Church. In Person. On Demand.  On your phone.  On your tablet. On your computer. 

This Sunday 5th February 2023 we invite you to come along and join us as Rev Mike leads us in our weekly family worship service.  Doors will be open from 10:15am, and the service begins at 10:30am.  It would be great to see you there.  Tea and coffee is available after the service.

For everyone’s safety, we continue to follow Covid-19 protection guidelines, and have hand sanitiser stations for your use.

Please note that this weeks hymn and sermon videos will be added after the Church Service takes place.  Please check back later to view the updates.
