Explore life, faith and meaning with Alpha

If you’ve ever had questions about life and faith, Alpha is for you. It’s a series of interactive sessions exploring what Christian faith is about. You can come no matter what you believe and no question is too complicated or silly to ask. It’s fun and relaxed, and each session starts with lunch.  Can’t make the first one or can’t commit to every session?  Just come when you can.

Wednesdays 1.30pm from April 26th in St Disen’s Church Hall.

Warm Welcome becomes Wednesday Welcome

Warm Welcome may have come to an end but we’d like to introduce you to our Wednesday Welcome.  Same lovely baked cakes, same cheery smiles, same welcome atmosphere.  Just slightly shorter hours, 10.00am to 2.00pm.

An invitation for Lent

‘Return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning’ (Joel 2.12)

The forty days of Lent provide us with an opportunity for reflection, for taking stock, of re-committing ourselves to God. We, therefore, invite you to join with us in praying the Lord’s Prayer at noon each day of this season, wherever you might be, using that daily rhythm as a means of reconnecting afresh with God.

A warm welcome for the New Year
