On Sunday, we heard these words in a sermon…

'I know some parents fear their children will be seen as too noisy or disruptive, so stay away.

I’ve spoken to teenagers and 20–30 year olds who wonder what there is for them in St Michael's on a Sunday morning.

I know a lot of adults in midlife who vanish from church under the weight of family and work.

Older members can worry their time of usefulness has passed.

But in the Kingdom of God, every age and stage matters.

And when any generation is missing, the family of God isn’t complete.'

So if you’ve ever wondered whether there’s a place for you at St Michael's — there is. You will always be welcome here.

St John’s@3 is a relaxed, creative afternoon gathering for all ages — with story, conversation, plenty of hands-on activities, music and CAKE!. There are no pews, no expectations — just space to explore faith together in a welcoming, informal environment.

This time, we’ll be outdoors celebrating Autumn Wild Worship — discovering God in the beauty of the world around us.

No need to book — just turn up. Everyone’s welcome.
