Our Worship
Our weekly act of worship is on Sundays at 10-30 a.m.
Our style of worship is mainly traditional and is usually led by a Methodist Minister or a Local Preacher.
We enjoy singing led by an organ and we use "Singing the Faith" as our hymnbook.
Usually once a month we celebrate Holy Communion and for this we use gluten free bread and non alcoholic wine.
Our services usually last about an hour and afterwards there is the opportunity for further fellowship over a cup of tea/coffee in our hall.
We look forward to welcoming you at one of our services in the near future.
Midweek Holy Communion Services
Thursdays at 10-30 a.m.
Whilst major refurbishment work is carried out at Christ Church, Dore, our friends from that church will be using our church for their Thursday reflective Holy Communion Services. The services will be led, alternatively, by Rev Andy Patrick and Rev Di Williams. These services are open to all and we look forward to welcoming new comers.
Please use the front door on High Street for the service. As there are other groups meeting in our hall at the same time parking may not be possible in our car park.
Morning Prayers
Mondays, Tuesday and Wednesday 9-00 to 9-30 a.m.
(Term time only)
Led by friends from Christ Church - everyone welcome.
