We hold a special service in church at 7.30pm commemorating Ascension Day, followed by refreshments and desert.

After this from 8.30-9.30pm is our Half-Yearly Vision Night, a chance to hear an update on our children and families work, building refurbishment plans, finances, and to contribute towards the discussion as we make plans for the future.

We hope you can join us to play a part in your church.
