messy church     Come dressed to get messy!

Messy Church happens six times a year, from 2-4pm, during the termly and half-termly holidays. Details about any forthcoming Messy Church events can be found on the 'notices and fliers' section here.

Messy Church takes a biblical theme and story, and uses this to generate a series of craft activities. It is suitable for pre-school children, and children up to the age of about 10. Activities might involve face-painting, balloon-modelling, story-telling, painting, puzzles or games.

After this, there is a short, interactive act of worship. A child-friendly song is sung, and children's prayers are also offered.

 After all this, it's time for biscuits, cake and enjoying each other's company.
