The Sunday morning services follow various themes decided by the ministry team. The main hymn books used are Songs of Fellowship and Baptist Praise and Worship, though we also use a projector for newer songs. The style of the service varies a little from week to week:

The first Sunday morning of each month is usually a family service - this is geared much more towards the children, who stay in the church for the whole time. On the other Sundays, the children and young people leave after about half an hour to go to the "Supernova" groups, rejoining the main congregation towards the end of the service.

Communion services take place during the morning service on the third Sunday. The children are included in the communion, welcomed as part of the church family, and go to their own activity after sharing the bread and wine.

On the fourth Sunday there is a "worship" slot at the beginning of the service - although of course our whole lives are an act of worship, we've not really found a better name for this time of joyful praise and contemplation, led by a member of the congregation.

Sunday 30 November - Bring and share lunch and church decorating

As we enter advent it seems good to mark the season in our usual way... with food! There will be a bring-and-share lunch after the service, and a joint effort at decorating the church into the festive spirit.


We now record sermons onto MP3 format for those who were unable to attend on a particular Sunday. The recent sermons are downloadable here.
Note that these files are really quite large - expect significant download times on slow connections.
