Welcome 

As a part of the Church of England we are a part of the global church.  We see all we do as part of the bigger picture that is our local community, our town, our nation and the whole earth. Most Sundays we offer a quiet and shorter service at 9.00am and a family friendly service at 10.30am. The values are the same at both, aiming for flexibility within a structure and a contemporary feel. We desire to join in with God the Father's mission: to make his Son Jesus Christ known in word and action as led by the Holy Spirit.
 

Whatever the reason you are visiting our website, please feel at home with us. Explore the pages and find out more about what we hope for and what we are doing to make that happen. Join us in worship and enjoy the peace of being in God's presence. Join us in fellowship at the end of the services. Participate with us in the love of God and help us to reach out in His love to our community and beyond.

From David this week.....

At both services this Sunday we have a foretaste of the Heavenly Banquet as we share in Holy Communion around the Lord’s table. Following the meal with the Pharisees Jesus is travelling and joined by large crowds. Jesus make it clear to them that He is not there to entertain and thrill them. Jesus rams this home by saying it is costly to follow Him as a disciple. Our relationship with Jesus comes before any human relationship. Jesus uses the parable of building a tower and going to war to tell us we must count the cost if we are to follow Him and make a difference in the world. These verses alone (Luke 14:25-35) demolish an approach to faith that is based in a consumeristic approach to coming to church. Simon Edwards our guest preacher will encourage our calling to join with God in drawing our society to the essence of Christ.
 
Revd Canon David Hague
