 Sparx is about discovering the Bible and all it has to offer though a series of fun activities - drama, games, stories and craft. Sparx usually finishes at 1130/ 1145am for refreshments.


All Sparx leaders have undergone a DBS check.  Further information can be found about Sparx by clicking on the image above.


Sparx now splits into 2 age groups with different activities - the older children have called themselves Flames (Flamz?)

Special services:


From time to time, we have services which are a little different from the norm, such as All Age Worship & 3 Course Worship. 


We have All Age Worship several times a year, which is a shorter, more interactive service, involving all the congregation - the children do not leave us but take an active part in the worship.  Often with dramas, activities, discussions and our live band, it is ideal for families and those new to the church.

All Age Worship - 2nd March - watch here.


Roots - our brand-new Saturday service!  A relaxed, informal, and interactive space where we explore what it means to grow deep roots as a church family.  Expect real-life testimonies, worship, and plenty of space to reflect and connect in whatever way feels right for you.  Whether you’re new or have been with us for years, this is a place to grow together, strengthen our faith, and build something lasting.  Come as you are, bring a friend, and let’s take this journey together!

This new service is not being streamed at present. For more information, email here


Last but not least, is our 3 Course Worship which starts with a mini traditional service, then a break for refreshments with a variety of workshops, followed by a more modern worship style - the input from the workshops are incorporated into this part of the service.  You can choose which of the 3 "courses" you wish to join, 1 2 or all 3! 


3 Course Worship - Sunday 29th September - watch here (workshops that took place in between services not shown)
