Holy Communion
MegaSun
Morning Worship
Evening Worship..................................................................
Holy Communion at 9.00am is generally a formal service and on the second Sunday of each month follows the liturgy of the book of common prayer.
The service usually lasts for approximately one hour and includes a shortened version of the sermon that will be preached at the 10.45am Morning Worship Service...................................................................
MegaSun is an informal family service for all ages, but with the primary aim of being suitable for primary school children and their parents. It is held on the third Sunday of most months at 10.45am and usually lasts for about 45 minutes.
The singing and the teaching is intended to be accessible for the younger children, but good fun for the parents and older friends too. In the service we use Powerpoint presentations alongside drama, quizzes and other activities. Come prepared for an action-packed morning, or if you're not so energetic, come and enjoy the enthusiasm of our youngsters..................................................................
Morning Worship This takes different forms on different days.
The first Sunday of the month is communion, using the modern language service from “Common Worship”. On the fourth Sunday we have greater opportunity for extended worship in a more contemporary style. In all our services, there is a strong emphasis on biblical teaching, combined with prayer and the reading of the bible.
We use a mixture of traditional hymns and modern songs in an attempt to enable all the members of our diverse congregation to enter into the Lord's presence and worship him. While the adults and older teens are in church, the children enjoy their own activities either in PowerHouse (3-11) or Pathfinders (11-16). We all come together after the service for hot or cold drinks – a good time for people to stay on and chat...................................................................
Evening Worship Again, these take different forms on different evenings. There is a variation between more traditional and more informal services, with communion on the third Sunday of the month. Again there is an emphasis on biblical teaching. Sometimes there is a chance for extended prayer.
Every three months, we have the Fifth Sunday Service at which we are joined by friends from Cassington and the Eynsham Baptist Church . This is service where there is an emphasis on contemporary songs and a chance to experience different forms of worship, somewhat along the lines of Spring Harvest.
