Times and Seasons:

Like most Churches our worship follows the cycle of the Christian year.  Each year our Bible readings take us through the whole story of God and God's world - from the very beginning, in the history of God's special people, the birth, life teaching death and resurrection of Jesus and the future God has in store for us.

There are many special events along the way: you may well find that the church has been decorated to help us tell the story of the season: Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, Harvest Festival, Remembrance.
