• 930am - 1130am Community Cafe

A place where people can COME, MEET, BE.

We want people to come together to meet other people from the community and just be themselves in a safe, friendly and welcoming environment.

The Community Cafe is to be a place for all people, of all ages, at the heart of their local community.   A place where as a Church we can radiate God’s love and reach out in practical ways to the people we come into contact with.  We aim to build relationships that are long lasting, offer help, support, prayer and a listening ear.

The Community Cafe also wants to give people the opportunity to explore their more creative side.  We aim to work towards a variety of 'craft' projects throughout the year to contribute to different aspects of our community.
