Church Life

 As we seek to grow and learn as Christian disciples, we do so together through mutual care and support.
Please get in touch if you would like to find out more about any of the groups or activities detailed below or other activities such as our occasional walks in the countryside and small group sessions.
We also run a Wellbeing Cafe open to all, see "Community" for details of this.

Caring for Each Other

We all have a role in caring for each other, we also have a pastoral team and aim for everyone to have a pastoral contact. We are working towards being a dementia-friendly church and have trained ‘Dementia Friends’.
 
If you have any particular issues that you would like to speak to someone about, please contact us.

Sherwood Men's Group

The Men’s Breakfast Group offers men linked to the church the opportunity to meet, share fellowship and have fun together.  We meet monthly on a Saturday morning to share breakfast and discussion. From time to time, we also have speakers, short local walks or other social activities.  We also like to join with men’s groups from other churches for weekends away.

Prayer

Prayer underpins all we do as a church community.  Each Saturday morning at 9.30am we hold a time of prayer in a small group at church and welcome requests for prayer at that. Prayer shawls and squares are made by the Knit and Natter group and given to those in need of support . We have a small Quiet Room that can be used for private prayer or reflection. This room contains prayer resources and prayer stools.

Knit and Natter

We meet every other Wednesday at 7.30pm, either at the church or on Zoom. We knit prayer shawls, angels, blankets for the neonatal unit, and even bunting. At times people also bring their own knitting or crafts.

Soup and Chat
Join us for soup, cake and a chat on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month in the Upper
Halll from 1pm

Safeguarding

We aim to provide a safe space for everyone.
The church has a strict safeguarding policy to provide a safe environment for children, young people and vulnerable adults. Anyone leading or helping in a group is required to undergo checks and the relevant level of training, both of which a constantly being monitored and updated.
