Mr Eric Barge led the most recent Service when he took as his theme “Faith.” The traditional hymns he chose reflected his theme. In his message, he gave various examples of when we must have Faith in another person or thing. Having Faith motivates our actions and shapes our views; in a religious context it would be trusting in God.

After this shortened Service, a Members’ meeting was held in which future Services and Events were discussed and planned. A cream tea followed when everyone enjoyed a sociable time together.

The next Service is on July 20 when Mr Tim Moxham will be leading the Service..

Anyone is welcome to join in our Church Services, held fortnightly, or other events, details of which can be found on the noticeboard outside of our Church in North Road.

The services during bible month have been taken from St John's Gospel. We have enjoyed studying familiar passages and sung favourite hymns.
