Services at Church

St Margaret's offers two services in the Church each week. These take place on:

• Wednesday Evenings 7pm - 7.30pm (with communion)
• Sunday Mornings 11.30am - 12.30pm (with communion)

Services online

St Margaret's streams our Sunday Services to our YouTube Channel. This means you can watch the service live between 11.30am and 12.30pm or later that same week. We also publish the Weekly Pew Sheet and Weekly Intercession Sheet which allows you to follow the Service readings from wherever you are. 
 

Zoom Church

Our Wednesday evening service is both in person and streamed via Zoom. 

Morning Prayer

Most weeks Monday to Friday,  Rev Dr Lisa Curtice leads Morning Prayer live online from 9am. You can follow morning prayer via our YouTube Channel. 
 

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a warm welcome particularly from our Stewards who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. 

For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins.

Our services include time for reflection, singing, prayers, Bible readings and a sermon. Our weekly readings and service content are published on a Saturday afternoon in our Weekly Pew Sheet.   

On Sunday's after the service, we serve tea, coffee and biscuits (or cake!) This is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access which is via a ramp to the side of the Church. When you arrive on the grounds, someone will direct you. There is also a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one the steward know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. 

There is also a disabled toilet in the hall which is accessible from the Church.

What happens to the kids at church?

At St Margaret's we love to see children come along to church and we do have a small number of children who come along on a Sunday morning. We have dedicated kids section in the church where there is a bit more room for them to roam and some toys, books and colouring sheets to keep them entertained if the are not enjoying the Sermon!

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in clothes that make you feel comfortable.   

Will I have to join in?

Not at all! You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.

 

If you would like to come and visit the church beforehand you are more than welcome! Get in touch and we can arrange a time that suits you.   Name: Telephone: Email Address: Comments / Questions or anything you would like to say? Next, we will contact you by email to say hello and help arrange anything necessary for your visit.
