As we all wait to find out what will happen at the end of this 4-week lockdown, we are also preparing for our Christian season of Advent waiting, when we keep watch for signs of Christ coming among us. For the moment, our church building remains closed, but we have a whole host of opportunities online for us to gather as a church, to support and encourage one another, to deepen our faith, and to worship together. 

During this lockdown we have a regular pattern of gatherings you are most welcome to join with:

Tuesdays 10am - Coffee and chat Zoom link

Wednesdays 12.30 - Lunchtime prayers Zoom link

Thursdays 8.00pm - Chat and compline Zoom link

Fridays 10am - Toddler and Children's Church families coffee and chat Zoom link

We also have Morning Prayer at 9am every day on our website here and on Facebook. 

Advent Quiet Day

Our Advent season will begin with a quiet day at home over zoom on Saturday 28th November, 10-3.30 - more info here.   Please let me know by the end of Sunday if you'd like to attend.

Advent worship

Our Advent Carol service will be live streamed on Sunday 29th November at 7.00pm.

On Sunday 6th and 13th December we will have live streamed Advent Evening Reflections at 7.00pm.

Advent Group - Mondays at 8pm

This Advent we have an opportunity to explore some of the "Big Questions", on Mondays on zoom, 8.00-9.30pm. 



• 30th November: Why should I believe in God? 
• 7th December: Does prayer make a difference? 
• 14th December: Why is there suffering?

Join using this link, or use the meeting code: 817 3293 8898 and passcode: 207850

All are welcome. Please contact Simon Goodman for more details.

Christmas - ballot for seats at services

Rather than taking bookings for our Christmas services on a "first come first served" basis, we are using a ballot to share out as fairly as possible the opportunities to attend a service in church. If you would like to attend any of our Christmas services in the church and churchyard, please request tickets using the form here which will be open until Sunday 29th November.

Take care, and God bless,
