The words on the arch behind the Pulpit are ‘Jesus is Lord’. This is from Romans 10:9. That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

  

Most families are involved in some way with the life and work of the Church. There are for example twenty-two members on the morning collection rota and thirty-eight helpers on the Crèche rota.

Our minister normally presents the key headings from the morning service on the projector screens during the Bible Talk (Sermon). The congregation can follow these points that are also printed on the Order of Service, where a space is made available for taking a few notes. Copies of the Service are available on audio CD shortly after the morning service.
