This Sunday morning join us for breakfast from 10:15am then in our 11am service we will mark "FREEDOM SUNDAY", a global initiative organised by International Justice Mission to raise awareness in churches and Christian groups of the reality of modern slavery and God's call for Christians to act for justice.
Come back later on for our informal 18:30 service. We'll be checking out 2 Corinthians 12 with a session titled “When God doesn’t give us what we want” as part of our series on building a house of prayer.
Stay for refreshments after both services and there will be prayer stewards available for anyone. All welcome!

This Thursday we have a service of worship at 2pm in the church to start the new term for SALT (SALT was previously known as Senior Fellowship).
All are welcome for a service of worship with traditional hymns, followed by tea and coffee (it's not just for people that are part of SALT - all are welome!)
We will be thinking about Acts 18:24 - 19:7 - “I believe you can teach an old dog new tricks. Do you have a teachable spirit?”
This Sunday morning we're exploring Acts 18, thinking about how God wants to speak to us and make His Presence known to us when we are overwhelmed.
“My thoughts say, ‘I can’t do this’
My Father says, ‘I am with you’ “
Breakfast available in the church hall before the 11am service.
Join us again for our 18:30 service when we'll be starting a new series on “Building a house of prayer”, beginning with thinking about how and why God anoints us with His Spirit.
