We aim to minister to as wide a range of groups within the church and the local community as possible.\u00a0 Below are the main areas we cover.<\/p>\n
We have a number of groups that meet in the evenings and during the day. Small groups should offer something extra that we cannot achieve in \u00a0regular congregational meetings. Whatever the small group objectives may be, the most important purpose of a small group, in our opinion, is GROWING AS INDIVIDUALS, TOGETHER! There are two factors which we believe to be key in achieving this and which should form the foundation of small groups before we jump straight into Bible study.\u00a0One is sharing the questions we have about biblical texts and going deeper into what God has for us in the bible and the other is praying for and supporting each other in our walk with Jesus.<\/p>\n
Contact Duncan Beet<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n We have a number of weekly groups both in and out of church.\u00a0 They include groups for toddlers as well as children up to school year 6.\u00a0 \u00a0In addition we hold a summer holiday club and follow up sessions covering different festivals.\u00a0 Follow this link for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n Currently we offer three different groups for young people from from Year 7 upwards. These run in term time and look at the Christian faith in different\u00a0 ways.\u00a0 Follow this link for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n There are two baptism preparation sessions which are run by The rector, Duncan Beet and the curate, Heather Hall.\u00a0 They will come to your home at a mutually convenient time, usually in an evening when children are asleep (hopefully!) \u00a0Duncan and Heather will go through the baptism service with you, helping you to explore what is involved with it.\u00a0 Each session will last less than an hour.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Once or twice a year we run Christianity Explored sessions.\u00a0 Christianity Explored does exactly what it says on the tin.\u00a0 It\u2019s an informal way of\u00a0 investigating the Christian faith.\u00a0 It explores who Jesus was, what his aims were, and what it means to follow him.\u00a0<\/span>No prior\u00a0<\/span>knowledge or faith is assumed.\u00a0 You’re not asked to pray, sing, or read aloud, and you ca<\/span>n ask any question you like. Or, if you prefer, you\u00a0<\/span>can come along and simply listen.<\/span><\/p>\nChildren’s Ministry<\/a><\/h2>\n
