Christingle 

A beautiful service for all the family, make a Christingle during the service - don't worry if you have never made one, we will show you how and give you all the things you need - and then see the church illuminated by the candles.  It is a lovely service to begin our Christmas services at St John’s. My project
 

Christmas Eve Carol Service

At St John's we love to hold a traditional carol service with well known readings and carols.  With the church decorated with over 20 Christmas trees it really is a highlight of Christmas.  Come and join us on this special evening, lasting around a hour, it is suitable for all ages.  We would love to give you a warm welcome to St John's.

To celebrate the birth of our Saviour we have a short service, with communion, at 10am on Christmas Day.  Singing well known carols we welcome children to bring a present to show or just come for a quiet reflection on the significance of the big day.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Welcome to St John's 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at the Church Building (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 10:30am. When you arrive you can be assured of a warm welcome.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits at the end of the service. It is a great way to meet people. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcomers know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There is a toilet accessible to wheelchair users in the hall.

Our Service

The service begins at 10.30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members and we give thanks to God for the good news we have to share. Following this we have a family song, encouraging children involvement in leading our actions! During our services we try to have a balance of traditional, modern and new worship. One of our leaders will then give a bible based talk that we can apply to our everyday life.  After that, we sing again before a time of prayer which will be led by the leader. We then finish with a final worship song. The whole service lasts around an hour and we stay for ‘proper’ coffee and biscuits! 

What about my children?

Children stay with their parent or grown-up, we have areas at the back and front of church with toys, beanbags and crafts. There are baby changing facilities in the hall  We love having children in our services, they are valued members of our church.
