Messy Church
Join us during the summer holidays, for our "Half Term Holiday Hang-outs".
Thursdays, August 7th, 14th and 21st, 2.00pm - 4.00pm
These are a slightly different format from our usual sessions. Over the summer holidays, you can come and go as you please, throughout the sessions. They are less structured, with a focus on Crafts and Activities and whilst squash and snacks are available, there is no meal at the Holiday Hang-Outs.
These sessions are also FREE.
Join us for our Creation and Eco-themed adventures this summer!
Our next regular Messy Church is on Thursday, 18th September, 4.30pm - 6.00pm
Messy Church is a fun and exciting way for children and their families to explore Church and faith together, through crafts, songs, games activities, stories and more!
Sessions start in the hall and lounge with a variety of Crafts, activities and games. We then move into the worship area for a fun time together! We share a story, sing some songs and have a chance to talk together about what we are learning. Then it’s back to the hall again for our final session together, which is a simple shared meal.
We ask for a £3 donation per family for food and craft materials. We ask that children are always accompanied by an adult.
During term-time, Messy Church usually runs on a Thursday afternoon once a month, from 4.30pm - 6.00pm.
During school holidays, we often have "Half Term Holiday Hang-outs" which are 2pm - 4pm and a slightly different format. For these sessions, you can come and go as you please,
the sessions are less structured, with a focus on Crafts and Activities and there is no meal at the Holiday Hang-Outs. They are also FREE.
