What to expect

Come as you are

Our services last about an hour, with live music and a practical talk from the Bible. You don't need to know anything, dress a certain way or believe anything before you come. Just come and see.

Kids and families

Your kids will love it

Venture Kids runs in every service for ages 2 to School Year 6, with trained and DBS-checked teams.

Your first visit

Where do I park?

At Oldbrook, look out for our First-Time Guest parking signs and our car park team will help you find a space. At Kents Hill there is plenty of parking on site.

What happens when I arrive?

Our welcome team will meet you at the door and show you where to go, including the main room, the toilets and where to check in your children.

How long is the service?

About an hour. We start with a few songs, then someone from our team gives a practical talk from the Bible. At the end there's time to respond to what we've heard.

What should I wear?

Most people dress casually. Wear whatever you feel comfortable in.

What about my children?

Venture Kids runs in every service for ages 2 to School Year 6, with singing, stories and small group time. If you have a baby, there is a space where you can watch the service together. Check-in opens 15 minutes before each service.

My child has additional needs. Is there support?

Yes. We'd love to talk with you before your visit so your child feels comfortable and supported. Let us know when you tell us you're coming.

Will I be asked to give money?

No. There is a moment in the service when our church family give, but you're our guest, so please don't feel you need to.

Can I watch online first?

Of course. We stream live on Sundays at 10:00 and 11:30, and you can catch up on recent talks any time.

Let us know you're coming

Tell us which Sunday you're planning to come and we'll look out for you. We'll greet you personally when you arrive, help you check in your kids, show you around and save you a seat.
