This service is live in church, but it will be streamed so if you are unable to attend you can view it online. Now most of the words will also appear when you view the service on line so it will be easier to follow the service.
Next church cleaning session

All welcome to come along and help!
We are all members of the God’s church, so it would be lovely if you could spend just half hour or so to help make the church look nice and clean ready for Christmas ; you don’t have to stop the whole time. Please come and help if you can – the more helpers we have the quicker it can be done!
The more the merrier!
Thank you your help will be greatly appreciated
