Baptism

We are always delighted to welcome people of all ages into the church through baptism, (often called a Christening) and would love to talk to you if you are thinking about this for yourself or for your child. Our baptism services take place within the 10.30 Sunday Morning services.
Baptism is a beautiful gift from God, a sign of new birth, of complete forgiveness and acceptance, of the hope of external and of belonging to a loving community. We hope you will experience all these things through baptism.
For you it's a chance to give thanks for your child, to start your child on the journey of faith, to renew your love for God.
For your child it's a beginning of life in God, a belonging to a worldwide Church Community and a light of hope through life and death.
For your Church it's an opportunity to love, welcome, support and pray for you and your child.
Baptism is a physical outward sign, which reveals a spiritual reality of God's love and forgiveness, it is called a sacrament. In it we remember how God commits Himself to us and we promise to live our lives for Him.

Confirmation

We are very much looking forward to welcoming Bishop Anna to the Parish on Sunday 13th September for a joyful Confirmation Service.
If you feel even a small stirring of interest in being confirmed, Rev Simon would be delighted to have an informal chat with you. He’s inviting anyone who may be considering confirmation to come and talk things through with him over the coming weeks, well in time for September.
Confirmation is a beautiful step in faith. It offers space to pause, reflect, and dig deeper into your journey — exploring what faith means for you personally and how God is at work in your life . It’s a chance to grow in trust, to follow Jesus more closely, and to say a heartfelt yes to God’s love and guidance.
If this feels like something you’d like to explore, please do get in touch with Simon or Mary.

They will be glad to walk alongside you as you consider this meaningful and joyful commitment.
