The Book of Common Prayer (BCP) dates to 1662, and the words and prayers are written in English of that period.
Many people find the particular style of language helpful to them, as the words often have a rhythm of their own. This rhythm in turn, assists some some people, as they contemplate their life in the world and their relationship with God.
This service is ideal for young families and friends.
It is light in touch and there is the opportunity to join in with precision instruments.
We also have a family corner located to the back of the church. At the front of the church is the vestry with toilets and a baby changing facility.
This is a modern Common Worship Parish Communion Service, and the words in the service are modern.
The service does have a formal structure, but we believe that is conducted in a way that prevents the formality of the service from being oppressive ‘a formal service, with rounded edges’.
