0-4s Kids' Group

We are so thankful for the number of young families that have been added to us - it's what we've been praying for! This also provides new opportunities to serve the precious young children and keep leading them to Jesus. We really need a few more helpers in the 0 - 4s age group, to be on a rota once a month. If you can help, PLEASE email Sam Pink.

Bereavement Journey

Bereavement is a time when people's lives totally change, and they often have many questions and are open to ideas they haven’t previously considered, which can trigger an openness to faith.

We are running the Bereavement Journey course again for 7 weeks, starting Mon 3rd March, 7pm. Cost £10.

The feedback we've had has been really encouraging. If you know people who have been bereaved recently, or some time ago, please consider inviting them to join this journey of equipping and small group sharing. 

Click here for more information or talk to Linda King.
