We have several home and Bible study groups for adults of all ages and all stages of faith.
Life groups meets Wenesday or Thursday evenings during term time at the home of Church members
With up to 10 people at each meeting, the aim is to learn from God by studying the Bible, praying together, and generally encouraging each other in the Christian faith. The approach is usually to work through a book of the Bible over several weeks, using study notes, CDs or DVDs as a guide. Recent examples have included studies based on Ephesians and Mark's gospel , help in developing our prayer life, and thoughts on growing as Christians.
There isalso a friendly, lively and informal group of ladies who meet occassionaly to share ways to explore our faith together. We meet in term time and try to find courses or stand-alone study sessions so as not to exclude those who cannot come to every session. We share faith, fellowship and friendship with food and drink to encourage us. In the summer months we often go on prayer walks and picnics. We do our best to support each other and are always open to new ways of exploring our faith together.
All are very welcome to come along - just check with the Vicar for more details

The Alpha Course aims to explore the Christian faith in a friendly and relaxed way and is open to anyone, whether they are new to faith or would like the opportunity to re-explore Christianity. The course provides an opportunity to ask questions, to learn more about the Christian faith, to engage with the joys and challenges of being a Christian and to grow and mature in faith.
Meetings are relaxed, friendly and open and no question is considered silly or out of bounds. Meetings include discussions, time for reflection, bible study, teaching and a chance to listen and learn from each other. The course also provides good preparation for those who are thinking about confirmation.
We are hoping to begin a new course again soon.
