On Sundays:
- All are welcome to our Sunday morning service, which starts at 9.30am and lasts about 1 hour. There is a printed leaflet to guide you. Coffee is served after the service.
- Our ministers Bob and Karen Street lead worship regularly and on other Sundays we have visiting preachers. Members are encouraged to take some part in services, particularly reading from the Bible.
- You can sit where you like in church.
- We normally sit to pray and to hear the word of God from Bible readings and through talks and sermon. The Bible reading and sermon are an important part of the service as we believe that God still speaks through the Bible today.
- We normally stand to sing hymns and choruses, led by the organ or piano. The music is a mixture of modern and traditional.
- There is Junior Church, which meets at the same time as the service. The children join the adults for the first part of the service.
- We celebrate communion on the second Sunday of each month as part of our main service.
- This Church is supported financially by its friends and members, so there will be a collection at some point in most services.
- The door stewards will be pleased to help you and provide any additional information you may require.
On weekdays:
- We hold Church Meetings every 3 months when members come together to discuss the church's business.
- The Manor Road Pre-School meets each weekday in the hall.
- Twinkly Stars Toddler Group meets on Tuesday afternoons from 2 - 3.30 in term time. All children and their carers are welcome.
On Thursdays at 2 pm we meet for prayer in the church, when we pray for the church, the village and the wider world. There are small groups meeting during the week, where friendships are developed, faith is increased and outreach is encouraged.
- Often, the ecumenical Global Café opens in the church vestibule offering fair-traded refreshments and goods. It is usually open once every month 10am-11.30am. All are welcome.
- The Friendship Circle meets once a month at Rusthall Lodge, an old people's home, at 3pm.
- On Wednesday morning from 10 till 11.30 the church is open for tea and coffee and all are invited to pop in.
- From time to time we organise social events, such as coffee mornings and a summer barbecue, to which village residents are very welcome.
- Also from time to time we run Alpha courses, which provide teaching on the basics of the Christian faith to any people who are interested.
There is disabled access to all parts of the building and there are toilets for the disabled in both church and hall.
