Worship at St James

Sunday Worship

We regularly have two services each Sunday

9.30am Parish Eucharist

This is a traditional service of readings, prayers and preaching. Babies, children and young people are always welcome at our services. Refreshments are served after the service

11am - Active Church for Everyone

Our 11am service is more relaxed and informal. Alongside bible readings and songs there is a chance to talk to each other and express and develop your faith through creative and practical activities and prayers. The service is suitable for all ages and is especially accessible for those new to church. Services last approx 45 - 60 mins. Come along early at 10.30am for refreshments before the service.

Occassionally both congregations join together for joint services at 10.30am
