This week in February’s all age service Chris introduces the theme for our all age services for the next few months: “More and More”. The universe is big. Really big. Really, really, really big and it’s getting bigger all the time, there’s more and more universe every day. Just like the universe, its creator, God, is awe inspiring. What we need to do is give more and more thanksgiving to him!
Mike and Lynne lead us in our sung worship this week.
After introducing our year text for 2024 a couple of weeks ago, Chris now looks at the verse in the original context. What was Paul trying to say to the Corinthians through this part of his letter, and how is that teaching going to be applicable to our lives throughout 2024?
Andy leads the rest of the service with an update on the Mission of the Month for January, CSW, whilst Mike leads our sung worship this week.
As we continue into 2024 we take some time this week to look back on what God has done through the church over the last year. Chris leads us through some of the ways that we’ve been led as a church and looks forward to what is going to happen in the coming year. We also reveal our year text and Chris speaks briefly about the meaning and decision behind the verse being chosen. But more on that in a couple of weeks!
Susan leads the rest of the service with a reflection on the Psalms whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
A very happy new year to you all! Ant leads us in our first all-age service of the year, taking his inspiration from Chris’ Advent series of last month. How do we experience God’s peace, love and joy in our lives?
Mike leads our sung worship this week.
Karen leads us in our final service for 2023 as we look back on the year and give thanks to God for His provisions to us. Several of the congregation share what they have to be thankful for and share their prayers for the coming year.
Pete leads us in our sung worship with many of the songs also chosen by members of the congregation.
As we conclude our Advent series for 2023 Chris looks at Jesus bringing peace to the world. This doesn’t just mean no conflict; it means true Shalom peace, the reconciliation and reunification of God’s people. The making right of the world. And Jesus calls us to do that right alongside him.
We also have prayers for peace in situations in our lives and around the world whilst Pete leads our sung Christmas worship.
In our traditional carol service Chris speaks about the hope that we have through the birth of Jesus. The readings are brought to us by members of the congregation, whilst Mike, Lynne, Zoe and Dave lead us in our carols and songs.
We continue our Advent series for 2023 and Chris looks this week at the joy that Jesus brings. Joy is a simple but powerful word. It’s not something that we can force ourselves to feel, but something that processes out of glorifying and rejoicing in the Lord. Even in our darkest moments we are called to rejoice in the Lord and what Jesus has done, from this rejoicing will come our joy!
Ant leads the rest of the service with a rather unorthodox baking tutorial whilst Lynne and Dave lead our sung worship.
After our all-age service last week we now start our Advent series for 2023 in earnest with Chris looking at the interconnected nature of hope, faith, joy and peace. This week he looks at faith, the nature of the faith we have in God, how faith comes out of hope, and how faith must inevitably lead to action: otherwise we might as well not have it at all.
Susan leads the rest of our service whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
As we enter Advent for another year, Shona kicks us off by leading us in our all-age service for December. In the service we look at three things we can do to prepare ourselves for Christmas: we can 1) Wait in, 2) hope and 3) praise.
Chris leads us in our prayers this week whilst Mike and Ricky lead our sung worship.
