Sunday at 8am

This is a weekly communion service for those bright and keen in the early morning! There aren’t any hymns – it’s a quiet, thoughtful service, using the 2000 Common Worship liturgy. There is a short sermon on the Bible readings of the day, and prayers for our community and our world. We have coffee together after – it’s filtered coffee! – and toast and posh biscuits. It’s a lovely service with which to start the day. About 25 people come each week.

Sunday at 10am

This is our main service of the week, when we gather as a church family of all ages to worship together and share communion. We worship God with a variety of music, some led on the organ, some by our music group. The preaching is an important part of the service as we focus on the Bible readings for the day, and learn together. There are groups for the children in the rooms at the back of the church where they have their own Bible teaching and prayer time, before we all come back together for communion. We have coffee together after, and there’s the opportunity for private prayer if you have a special need on your heart. The service lasts about an hour and a quarter, and about 100 or so people come.  The 3rd Sunday of the month is different….

Family Praise

On the Third Sunday of each month at 10am we have our monthly Family Praise service.

This is a varied and informal type of worship, planned with children and families in mind. The service includes Bible stories, prayers and activities, modern songs, and a chance to celebrate our birthdays and anniversaries. It has quiet prayerful times, as well as some laughter and fun worship songs. This is a very popular service, to which over 100 people come, with lots of families and young children – the children have plenty of things to join in and you don’t have to worry if they run around and make a noise! We collect food for the Food Bank, the crisis centre in Gloucester, so do bring along some tins, jars, pasta, etc..

For those who wish there’s a quiet Communion service after we’ve had coffee, at 11.30am

Church in the Hall

This is now in the evenings once a month – on the 1st Sunday of each month at 5.30pm. It’s an informal time of worship and fellowship, held in the relaxed atmosphere of the Church Hall, with music led by our music group, Bible teaching and prayer.  There are activities for the children, and everyone is really welcome.
