About our Services

 

Our services are led by Ministers from our Southern Fellowship — Revd. Dr. Sarah Hall or Revd. Mike Perrott — alongside visiting preachers and members of our own congregation.

Regular Services

  • Family Service: Every Sunday at 10.30 am
  • Mid-week Service: First Wednesday of each month, 11.30 am – 12 noon
  • Holy Communion: Celebrated on the third Sunday of each month

Our Sunday mornings are family-focused, welcoming around 50+ adults and children, with a strong presence from the Girls’ and Boys’ Brigade. Parade services from the Brigades are held from time to time.

Special Services

  • United services with local churches and occasional Songs of Praise gatherings
  • Easter tradition: Communion at 8.00 am, followed by Easter Breakfast, and a joyful 10.30 am service celebrating new life
  • Christmas Services: A range of celebrations including the Nativity and Carol Service, all filled with joy and community spirit
  • Christingle Service: Held on Christmas Eve at 4.00 pm, this much-loved tradition is always packed with families. Volunteers lovingly prepare the traditional Christingles, and our puppet team often brings the story to life as part of the service. It is a beautiful, family-orientated occasion that has been popular for many years.
