The hall
An hour, honestly described
Songs old and new, a talk from the Bible that assumes intelligence rather than agreement, communion once a month, and nobody making visitors stand up. Dress code: clothes. Kids wriggle; that's what kids are for.
Recent talks
Missed a Sunday, or vetting us from the sofa first? Both fine.
Doubt is not the opposite of faith
The Thomas story, for everyone who checks the reviews first.
This Sunday· 28 minThe economics of enough
Sabbath, wages and why rest is a justice issue.
Last Sunday· 31 minNeighbours, actual ones
The parable everyone quotes and nobody finds convenient.
Two weeks ago· 26 min“I came for a carol service three years ago and stayed for the Tuesday lunches. Nobody ever chased me — they just kept the kettle on.”
Mark
Tuesday lunch regular, eventual Sunday one too
Sunday's easier with a friendly face
Tell us you're coming and someone will save you a seat and a decent coffee.
