We are currently reviewing our Sunday afternoon and evening worship. Please see the latest notice sheet for what is on.
This is some of the worship services and styles that we’ve had to suit different people.
From the traditional and reflective, to the latest in music and thinking, we hope that there’s something for everyone in the following pattern of services.

—————————————————————–
Taizé Worship
Follows the reflective and musical traditions of the Taizé Community in Burgundy, Southern France. The gentle and reflective contemporary chants in this half hour service give a peaceful opportunity for prayer. Held in St Martin’s on the first Sunday of every month.
Play Church
A service for the very youngest, and young at heart. Songs, stories, craft and prayer, aimed at children from birth upwards. 4pm on the 2nd Sunday of the month at St. Martin’s.
The “Reflections Service”
Provides a fresh take on big themes using multi-media and multi-sensory ideas to get you to think and inspire fresh prayer. Third Sunday of every month at St Andrew’s.
St Chad’s
A traditional church building and a traditional form of Evening Prayer from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer is at St. Chad’s on the fourth Sunday of the month. This is a type of service that would be familiar to churchgoers from any time in the past five centuries of church, and contains rich and beautiful language and music.
Four times a year there is a fifth Sunday
Each month this happens there will be a service of Wholeness and Healing in a different church each time.
