Sunday Services
Our main services are held on Sundays where we meet together as a Fellowship to express our worship in singing and Bible reading, hear Bible-based ministry from our Pastor, or visiting speaker, and to encourage each other to live out our faith in every area of our lives.
Sunday services are at 10:30am and 6:30pm. Each service follows a similar structure but pursues a different ministry theme, as announced. Sunday School will be available during the second half of the morning service.
Communion is celebrated morning and evening on alternate Sundays.
10:30 am Morning Worship Service
The Sunday Morning is a traditional service comprising hymns, prayers, Scripture reading and a sermon (plus communion on alternate Sundays). There is provision for a crèche for preschool children and a Sunday School following a planned syllabus of Bible teaching, running concurrently with the service. The service has minor variations in its order but focuses on a Sermon by the Pastor, John Macleod, normally forming part of a series.
Communion is celebrated during the morning service on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month.
There is an opportunity after the morning service to meet for refreshments in the hall and a time of informal fellowship.
6:30 pm Evening Worship Service
We meet again at 6:30 pm for our Evening Worship Service. The evening service is similar to the morning one but with greater focus on Bible teaching through expository preaching.
Communion is celebrated in the evening on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month during this service.
Prayer Meeting
The church Prayer Meeting is held each Tuesday at 8 pm in the church with general and specific prayer for both the witness of the church and the work of missions.
Supplementary prayer times are also conducted by Zoom on Wednesday and Friday mornings from 9:00 am to 9:30am.
Bible Study
A weekly Bible Study on Zoom is conducted each Thursday evening at 7:30 pm. Access details available on request.
The Bible Study focuses on the structure and content of the Books of the Bible and takes the form of sharing reflections gained from individual reading of the prescribed chapters during the week and summarised in a final lesson.
Ladies Meeting
The Ladies Afternoon Meeting is held on Thursday afternoons during the winter months (from October to March) from 2 pm to 3:15 pm. Around 30 women meet regularly for fellowship and to hear from guest speakers on their Christian testimony and experience. All women are welcome to The Ladies Afternoon Meeting, young or old, and it is a place of real welcoming and friendship. There is also an annual outing to a local visitor attraction.
