Come
along
Sunday 10.30am
Each week visitors come along to see what church is like, or to support someone celebrating a life event like a baptism or baby dedication.
The meeting is similar each week lasting about 1.5 hours with segments for music, a message and the kids activities.
When you arrive you'll meet someone from the welcome team, who'll say hello and help you find a seat, and register any children for kids church sessions later on.
You'll see the Breeze Translate QR code on posters and on the screen - if you scan this you'll be able to follow along in many languages, by reading a transcript on your phone screen. The welcome team can help you access the church Wifi too.
At 10.30am we start with a welcome and introduction, and then spend about 25 minutes singing worship songs along with a live band, and the words appear on the large screen. People either stand, or sit, and they may raise their hands and clap along. There's no right or wrong way, just what feels comfortable to you. We enjoy having the kids involved in this part of the meeting and worshipping together as families.
We then take a short break for the kids to go to their Kids Church groups. You can find out more about these here. This is a good opportunity to say hello to others in the meeting.
After about 5 minutes, the speaker will call people back to their seats for a message based on the Bible. This part of the meeting lasts 30-40 minutes. We believe that the Bible has the power to transform our lives and that through it, God speaks to us. The speaker unpacks a Bible passage in a relevant and engaging way.
We have a moment at the end to respond to God, and reflect on what we have heard. If you would like someone to pray with you personally about any situations you're facing, we'll connect you with one of the leaders.
After this, the meeting finishes and you can collect your kids. There's plenty of time to stay around to connect over a coffee in the foyer area.
