It is a privilege to meet together on Sundays for worship and friendship, but Sundays are never enough to build either our faith or our community. There are a number of ways you can connect with the life of the church midweek, through a variety of smaller groups where relationships are central. Some groups will centre around bible study and prayer whilst others will centre on building friendships through other activities.

Small Groups

Small groups usually consist of 6-12 people from church, or those who want to grow in their faith, encourage and support one another. We usually meet in church members' homes weekly to share food, pray, discuss the bible and develop friendships.

We have a number of small groups located in and around the area. Contact the Church Office and we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
