Services & Events
What we do...
We have a service every Sunday morning, with a few different services that we rotate each month:
All Age Worship
10.30am - a service of around an hour for all ages.
Holy Communion
10.30am - children stay in for the first 20 minutes, then go to their own classes, returning to join in Holy Communion.
Morning Worship
10.30am - a more informal service of worship and teaching. Children stay in for the first 20 minutes, then go to their own activities.
5th Sunday
Every 5th Sunday, we have a 'Bring and Share' service giving the congregation an opportunity to give testimonies and words they have received. And we have an evening 'Hi-Five' service for the youth group.
Baptism
Get baptized as an adult or young person
You are never too old to take this step!
Whenever it happens, whether as a baby, child or adult, baptism is at the heart of an amazing journey of faith as a follower of Jesus Christ. You are never too old to take this step, and being baptized as an adult is a wonderful experience.You may have been baptized at a christening when you were a child or in a different Christian tradition, and there are always special ways to renew the promises that were made then in a fresh way as you discover more about what it means to live them out in your life.
You may be asked to go along to
a few sessions to explore more about what it means to be a Christian, maybe
joining others who are exploring faith as well. Then there will be a special
service where you will be baptized. In the Church of England this may involve
water being poured on your head at the font, or at St Alban's we have a special
baptistry pool and you will be fully immersed in the water. However it happens,
it's a great occasion, full of joy.
