Children
On the first Sunday of the month, children stay in church with the adults. On the second Sunday of the month, children start the service with the adults in church, then go to the Barn for ‘Sunday Club’, returning to the church in time for Communion, where children are welcome to come to the front of the church for a blessing. On the third Sunday they are invited to join in the ‘Funday’ meeting in the Barn (please see below). On the fourth Sunday of the month children are in church for the first ten minutes or so, then go to their ‘Sunday Club’ in the Barn. Fifth Sunday of the month, children can stay in the church.
There is a small carpeted area at the back of the church with some books and toys available for youngsters if they get fed up in the pews. Please do not be embarrassed to get up and move around; we'd still rather have you with us!
All-age 'Funday' service
People of all ages enjoy the 'Funday' service on the third Sunday of the month, 10.30-11.30am in the Barn. An informal, friendly get together, thinking about how our faith relates to everyday life, plus a few songs and some time praying together.
For more information please contact the Revd Peter Francis or email
Breakfast Bunch - Mums and toddlers
During school term time, there is a mums and toddlers group called 'Breakfast Bunch' that meets fortnightly in the Barn on Wednesday mornings. Come and enjoy breakfast, a thought-provoking ‘word for the day’, activities, songs and toys for the children, an opportunity to meet parents in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We welcome all pre-school children and there is also a baby area with toys and suitable equipment for the under-1’s.
Tea/coffee with toast and preserves: £1 per adult. Fresh juice with toast and preserves free for your accompanying toddler.
