Meetings
Our main meetings are on Sundays at 10.30 a.m. and 5.00 p.m.. We also meet most three Tuesdays a month at 7.30 p.m.. for a Bible study and prayer time. One Tuesday per month we hold home groups.
At our meetings we sing hymns and songs, read from the Bible and pray. Because we believe the Bible is God’s Word, teaching from the Bible forms a central part in all our meetings.
Our meetings are informal, with no set prayers or liturgy. You do not need to dress in a certain way to come to meetings. There are often “open times” when people can contribute a prayer, or a Bible reading or a suggestion for a song to sing. But you do not have to contribute to meetings: you can just listen if you want to.
We use the New International Version of the Bible. Copies are available at meetings, and generally the page number is announced so that everyone can follow along. We use the “Praise” hymn book as our main source for hymns, but we also have our own songbook of other songs and hymns that are not in the “Praise” book. Song and hymns in our own songbook are both traditional and contemporary. In selecting them, we have looked for songs and hymns that are upbuilding and faithful to Scripture.
There is a Sunday School for children which takes place during the morning service. Children are welcome at all meetings. If you have a young child who is too noisy to stay in the meeting, we have a creche where you can sit with him or her. The sound from the service is relayed to the creche. We also have a class for children of primary school age which meets during the week.
From time to time we hold a special course for those who want to know more about the Christian faith. These are called “Christian Essentials”. Contact us to find when the next course will be starting.
Most weekends, either on a Saturday evening or Sunday evening we hold an open-air service in central London. To find when the next service is, contact us.
