Coming back to the heart of worship

Worship is more than just what happens on a Sunday. Our lives as Jesus’ disciples are at all times an act of worship, reflecting and giving thanks for his incredible, boundless love for each of us.

We are church every day, not just Sunday.

The Bridge Centre is open Monday to Friday as a place to enjoy a meal or a snack, pick up a bargain in the shop, or just relax. It offers opportunities to volunteer too.

PAUSING UNTIL JANUARY – On Tuesdays, 7pm POW (People of the Word) meets at the Beach pub on Hollingworth Lake. This is a relaxed time of learning more about our faith through studying the Bible. Grab a coffee, grab a pint, and join us.

Advent Bible Studies at church, 7pm each Tuesday – studies based on the Methodist Church’s Hush the Noise Advent resources.

Revive is an informal time to meet, enjoy a chat, make new friends, and enjoy afternoon tea. Revive happens at The Bridge centre on Thursdays, 2.30pm – 4pm
