What Should I Expect When I Visit? | |

The word church can conjure up so many images in our mind from old cold buildings, out of date music, weird language and long boring talks. We want to make sure that when you visit us that you will find something that helps you to make better sense of life through:

Don't worry, we don't have Trinny and Susannah at the door who tell you 'what not to wear'. We want you to feel comfortable and to be yourself, so our message is a simple one ... wear whatever you feel comfortable in.
The Bible is clear that God looks on the inside, not on the outside, that's what matters most.
What sort of music will I hear?
We also have state of the art PA equipment and most our services and talks, are on PowerPoint (except our 9.00am service) it looks and sounds great, and you'll hear the kind of music you would hear anywhere else, but the lyrics will be about God and what He has done for us! |
What’s available for my children?

Saint Chad’s is a Family Church!

The opening part of our services are ‘Family Worship’ times when we worship together before children leave for Sunday school (except All Age Worship Services - usually on the first Sunday).
All children (over 4) are encouraged to attend Sunday school (Parents are welcome to remain in Sunday school until children are confident enough to stay on their own.
The Ark is a comfortable place for parents to take children (under 4) if they become lively and overexcited during our services, where you will be able to follow our service through the ‘live’ TV Link!
We do encourage parents to listen to the service!
9.00am Traditional Service
We have a twice monthly Book of Common Prayer service, on the FIRST and THIRD Sunday's
for those who prefer something a little more traditional and reflective.
This service is ‘Robed’ and includes: Hymns led by our Choir; An Anthem;
Follows the Lectionary readings; has no sermon and lasts for approximately 45 mins.
10.30am Family Church
This is a contemporary service, usually with extended times of worship and teaching, and lasts
for about 90 mins. 'All Age Worship' means that the church family stays together for the whole service. On 'Family Church' Sunday's, we worship together for the first 25 mins before children and young people leave to attend their own groups.
