Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

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 am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to sit down and have a coffee with some of our members during our coffee fellowship. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Board of Trustees.  We serve tea, coffee, and snacks from 9:15 before the service begins. It is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Board of Trustees know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. 

Our Service

The main service begins at 10 am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our pianist or our CD player. We typically have 4 or 5 songs. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. 

Another Worship Service we offer is every Thursday at 6:00 pm.

Getting Connected

Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share, and support each other.  We offer a coffee fellowship on Sunday morning at 9:15 before service where coffee and snacks are available and people can gather and get to know each other before service.
