We understand that some people may feel intimidated coming into a church during a Sunday service, especially if they have never been inside a church before. We like to encourage people to enter our church building and experience God's house in an informal way. To this end the church is open for 2-3 hours at least one Saturday morning per month (usually 2nd Saturday but please see calendar (click on button below) for confirmed dates).


We offer tea & coffee, chat and a quiet area for reflection and/or prayer and the church knit and natter group meet in the church during this time.


Approaching Christmas and Easter we try and open 2-3 Saturdays leading up to these important dates in the Christian calendar and offer children's activities such as card, puppet and decoration making along with simple seasonal colouring posters.


Please look out for the church open poster by the front door, pop into see our beautiful building and spend some time in God's house with us.
