Messy Church

This happens on the first Sunday of every month from 9.30am – 11.30am

• Messy Church is a form of church for children and adults that involves creativity, celebration and hospitality.
• It’s primarily for people who don’t already belong to another form of church.
• It meets at a time (and sometimes in a place) that suits people who don’t already belong to church
• It typically includes a welcome, a long creative time to explore the biblical theme through getting messy; a short celebration time involving story, prayer, song, games and similar; and a sit-down meal together at tables. All elements are for, and should include, people of all ages, adults and children.
• It’s fun.
• It’s a church for people at all stages of their faith journey and of any age – a congregation that is as valuable and worthy of investment as any of your other congregations.
• It models and promotes good ways of growing as a family: a nuclear family, an extended family, and a global and local church family.
• Its aim is to introduce Jesus, to give an opportunity to encounter him and to grow closer to him.
