Meetings

Sunday 11.00 am and 6.30 pm: We meet for worship, where the main focus is on the preaching of God’s word. After the evening service we have refreshments, where everyone is welcome to stay for a coffee & a chat.

Sunday Prayer Meeting: On Sundays we have a regular prayer meeting at 6.00 pm before the evening service, except on the third Sunday of the month when there is a communion service instead.

Wednesday 7.45 pm: We meet for a time of prayer and Bible study. We begin with Bible study, after which we focus on one of the five missionary societies or missionary endeavours we support as a fellowship and then matters more closely connected to the fellowship. We support:

• OMF International
• Bible Faith Churches Kenya
• European Missionary Fellowship
• MECO
• Cubao Reformed Baptist Church, Philippines
• Unevangelised Fields Mission

Communion Services: We celebrate Communion before the morning service at 10.00 am on the first Lord’s day of each month. On the third Lord’s day, we celebrate it at 5.45 pm before the evening service. Where there are five Sundays in any given month, we also have Communion at 7.45 pm on the Wednesday preceding the fifth Sunday instead of our normal Bible study.

Christianity Explored Courses

The course is based on Mark’s gospel and uses a mix of study DVD and discussion. The atmosphere is relaxed, folk are encouraged to join in and ask questions as they arise.

The aim of the course is to lead to an understanding of who Jesus Christ is, the life he led, why he died, and how eternal life comes only through him.

Contact us for information & to join the next course.

Fellowship Meetings

Bible Study On alternate Thursday mornings: members and friends of the fellowship meet for a time of informal Bible study together at the home of one of the members. The group decides what to study – they may choose to work through a book of the Bible, or to study different aspects of the Christian faith. For more details contact us.  

CAMEO (Come And Meet Each Other) This is our ladies’ group, which meets on alternate Tuesday evenings in the church lounge at 8.00 pm. At the meetings we sometimes invite a speaker, or we have a fun activity together. We end each meeting with a short devotional word followed by light refreshments. Here is the programme for the coming months:

7th February – Ken Roberts

21st February – TBA

Children & Youth Meetings

Honeypot Tots is our parents & toddlers group, which meets every term-time Friday from 1.20pm till 3.20pm. Wall-to-wall children! Lots of bright toys for the little ones, refreshments for everyone, and a chance to get to know some of our church members.

This is run for children on Sunday mornings during the morning service.

Thursday Club is our weekly meeting for 5-11 year olds and meets termtime Thursdays 6-7pm. Singing, Bible story, memory verse, games and a quiz! 

Sonshine Club

The Sonshine Club is our summer holiday Bible club for 5-11 year olds (under-5′s can come too, but they must be accompanied by a responsible adult).

There are a wide variety of activities every day:- Songs, Outdoor Games, Bible Story, Handicrafts, Quizzes, Bible Verses To Learn

In fine weather the older children play outdoor games on the fields at the bottom of Ivy Green Road (they are accompanied by adults and supervised at all times), while the younger children stay at the church for less boisterous games. However, in wet weather they all stay and play indoors.

Following the games, the children will be told a story from the Bible. Each year we select a theme for the week and the Bible stories through the week will follow this theme. They may be stories about the life of Jesus or another Bible character like Joseph, Esther or King David.

The story is followed each day by craft activities linked to the day’s Bible story. The children can always take whatever they have made home with them at the end of the programme.

During the afternoon we will also sing choruses and teach the children a verse from the Bible. The day then ends with a quiz based on the story the children heard earlier in the programme.

Parents are welcome to stay and help and to get to know the church members. We are keen to talk about our faith and to share what we believe about the Lord Jesus Christ.
