Christenings

Your child is precious to you and precious to God. You want the very best for them, and so does God. You want them to make right choices in life, for themselves and for others. Whether you’re exploring the possibility of a christening or whether you’ve already decided,we’ll be delighted to hear from you to talk about it.

During the christening your child will be baptised. It’s the first step of an amazing journey with God, parents, godparents, friends, family and the church. You don’t have to have been christened yourself, and you don’t have to have been a regular churchgoer.

Please get in touch if you would like your child baptised. We’d love to hear from you.

Our child’s christening last week was lovely, all who attended love the service … The children loved being involved! We thought it was a brilliant service. 

Feedback from baptism families.

Christenings are held at our family service at 4pm on Sundays. This is an informal and welcoming service with storytelling, songs and activities for all.

The Coffee Shop is now open from 10am-1pm on Saturdays in the Mark Kirby Hall. Come along for tea, coffee and pastries at our friendly cafe.
