ALPHA COURSE – SIGN UP NOW!
Ever found yourself curious about life and faith?
Alpha is a no-pressure space where you can share your thoughts or just sit back and mull over the thoughts of others. Come and join us as we explore questions about faith, life and God.
Starting on Wednesday 8 January 2025, the first evening will begin with sharing a meal together, followed by a video and discussion. And the first session is just a taster – no obligation to complete the course!
So come and give Alpha a try.

Holy Communion is a traditional Service. There is Bible based preaching leading to the celebration of communion. We gather at the Lord’s table to celebrate and encounter the living Lord by faith and with thanksgiving as we receive the bread and wine.
All practising Christians of any denomination are welcome to share in Holy Communion with us.
INFORMAL COMMUNION
Informal Communion is a service using contemporary forms of worship lead by our worship team, including modern songs as well as traditional hymns.
This service also includes communion.
