Our main Sunday service — open, welcoming, and centred on the Eucharist. A traditional feel with hymns, readings, a sermon, and music led by our organ and choir, this service brings the church family together in prayer and praise. On the 4th Sunday: the service is Worship for All a more informal and creative service designed to include people of all ages.
