church@4is church for all – informal church, jargon free, modern music.
We meet every Sunday in various guises.
Week 1: church@4
church@4 is intended for all ages, including those who may not be familiar with church services. All are welcome. We start at 4pm but you can come early (from 3.30pm) for coffee, tea, squash and cake.
Week 2: Messy Church (see Messy Church page)
Note that on Messy Church Sundays we don't meet early for cake so please don't arrive before 4pm on these Sundays. Don't worry there is cake with tea instead, if you wish to stay.
Week 3: church@4
Week 4: Muddy Church
Muddy church is church outside. This is an intergenerational worship, so all ages are invited and are very welcome. It is an opportunity for all, irrespective of age, to explore faith together.
It doesn't actually involve mud, but it does use the natural elements around us to discover God. There is seating outside.
We may wonder and wander together, play together, hear a bible reading together, pray together.
We meet at 4pm for about an hour and refreshments are served before and after our time together.
What happens if it rains? Please dress for the weather, bring umbrellas, etc., although if it is very wet, we do move into the church hall.
Week 5: hangout@4 in the hall (There is also a Traditional service in the church area).
hangout@4 takes place 4 times a year on every 5th Sunday of the month and starts at 4pm.
It's best described as a Youth Club meets Toddlers' Groups meets Coffee Morning!
Come and join us for board games, a game of pool or table tennis or just come along to sit and chat.
Tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cold drinks on tap and plenty of cake!
We usually have a very short 'Thought for the Day'.
Inter-generational – definitely no age limit!
