Welcome, in the name of Jesus Christ, to this house of prayer, especially if you are new to us for the first time today!
Children are encouraged to join in with the service, please sit where they can see what is going on and don’t worry about noise! Help your children to engage with the service by following the actions and allowing them to move freely in the singing and encouraging them to sit quietly during the prayers and to listen carefully to the stories. Please stay and join us for refreshments after the service.
