An open place The hymn writer Michael Forster wrote this verse:
At St. Andrew's we are open to receiving doubts and questions about the Christian faith. We all have them, and they're a sign of growth, not of failure. God is calling and challenging us all, and our church exists to enable questioning, open minded people to discover for themselves the significance and extraordinary love of Jesus Christ. Through our worship we celebrate and explore the mystery that is God.
A learning place
As we gather together week by week we learn more about the loving nature of God, and His plans for us. Through hearing the Bible and sermons, through the richness of our liturgy and the inspiration of our music making, through reading the books in our up to date Parish Library, through talking with and listening to each other, we move forward both as individuals and as a worshipping community.
A nurturing place
We recognise that people serve God in many ways, both within the church and in their everyday lives. Many of us find that the demands of careers and vocations are draining. We need nourishment and nurture - to "allow our spirits to catch up with us". We also need to understand the connections between what we believe and the way in which we live and work. If this is your experience, we offer you a safe place to reflect and gather your resources for the week ahead.
A place for you
There is a place for you at St. Andrew's. Just turn up at a service, contact us, or read more about our church before you decide.
Remember: come as you are. Be as you are. We'll save a seat for you!
