8.00am

A quiet traditional service of Holy Communion following the Book of Common Prayer (1662) The service lasts about 30 – 35 minutes.

9.30am

This is the main morning service for all the family and includes congregational singing (led by a music group), corporate prayer and Bible teaching. A family Holy Communion takes place on the fourth and fifth Sundays of the month.
Children of primary school age are invited to leave at about 9.45am for ‘Kings Kids’ (next door in the Church Centre), and they come back in at about 10.25am. For those with younger children, there are some toys and a space to play in the south transept (on the right as you look to the front of the church).
Around 140 people attend this service, which lasts about 1 hour 15 minutes.
On the first Sunday of the month there is an all age service, there is no ‘Kings Kids’ group on this Sunday.

Afterwards many people stay for refreshments in the Church Centre – an ideal time to meet people and those coming to the 11.15am service.

11.15am

This is a slightly more reflective service with Holy Communion on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. Music is led either from the organ or a small music group. The sermon generally follows the theme of the 9.30am service. Around 40 people attend this service which lasts about 1 hour.

6.30pm

From January 2012, this service has taken a different feel. We meet together upstairs in the Church Centre, starting with sung worship for about 15 minutes. This is followed by a talk aimed at teenagers upwards, after which the young people move to a different room and use the talk as a springboard for discussion. For those who remain, things get flexible! We may continue in worship, we may have Communion (first and third Sundays of the month) there may be a time of prayer, or we may break for a tea/coffee to chew over what has been said in the talk. Whatever happens, the aim is to engage with God and each other before heading out to serve God in the week ahead. Around 50 people attend this service, and we wrap things up no later than 8.30pm, though people can leave at any point.

After every service (except 8.00am) there are people from the prayer ministry team who are available to pray with anyone about anything. Look out for those wearing blue, prayer team badges.
