For our Morning Worship this coming Sunday (24th April), we will be welcoming our former minister, the Rev Dr Robert Ellis, recently retired Principle of Regent’s Park College, Oxford, to lead us in worship. You can find out more about his work here.

The Bible readings are John 20:19-23 and Acts 5:27-41.

As always, you can join our service via Zoom if you cannot attend in-person – just contact us for the Zoom link.

If you can’t make it to the service, then you can also catch up on Listen Again.

Lighthouse Holiday Club Fundraising Results

A huge thank you to everyone for your generosity and support with the ‘Guess the name’ and ‘Guess the weight’ competitions, which were held before our morning services on 27th March and 3rd April.

The Lighthouse Team are pleased to announce that a total of £100 was raised, which will go towards resources to help the Lighthouse Team to provide the best experience for the children in the summer.

Congratulations to Gareth, who correctly guessed the name of Mary-Lou and to Catherine, whose guess that the cake weighed 2.604kg was the closest to the actual amount of 2.605kg!
