We have no specific order of service and so each Sunday is different, but here are some of the common elements. Everything we do is part of our worship and each aspect is as important as the rest. As you arrive at Church don't be afraid to walk through the door, you will be made welcome. Someone will quickly introduce themselves and help you to feel at ease. We have several entrances - the front door at the top of the path will take you straight into the main church and the side doors to the left, enters the hall where you will find the toilets and all the other facilities.
