Open Church
As part of our outreach to the community our church is open each
Monday and Wednesday
morning between 10.00 and 12.00. Our aim is to provide a place away from
the hustle and bustle of daily life. You will be most welcome to look around our
church, light a candle, or take the opportunity to browse our website. We
will endeavour to have tea and coffee available too.
We offer a welcome to all, whoever you are, whether or not you are a regular churchgoer. You may be a person who has not entered a church building for some time or you may be a visitor to our town, or are just looking for a refuge from the cares of the world.
You may wish to sit quietly in meditation or prayer or just sit quietly undisturbed. A trained listener will be available if you would like someone to talk with. If you would like someone to pray with you, for yourself or for a particular situation then someone will be there for you.
Please note that Coffee Mornings on Mondays and Wednesdays are subject to enough people being available to run them.
All are welcome.
The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed
that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all seeds, but
when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree... Matthew
13:31-32
Consider the smallest things that people have done for you
that have enabled you to grow.
Write down a single word or a name to give thanks for those things and for those
people.
Most Monday's between 10.00 and 12.00 our Minister will be available in the vestry for anyone to come to talk about anything at all. So whether you want to come and discuss the previous day's sermon, raise an issue, or see our Minister to talk about something happening in your life, you will be most welcome to drop in.
Feel free to just turn up on a Monday morning but if you want to make a specific appointment please e-mail or Telephone +44 (0)1803-555694 - Mobile +44 (0)7804-882582 in advance.
Keep an eye on the Weekly Notices for the occasional Monday morning when our Minister will not be available. Since this is a time when our Church will be open there will always be someone around to listen or pray with you.
You are also very welcome to join us for coffee and biscuits.
