Messy Church

Messy Church is an event held on Saturday afternoons on specific dates during the year and the team include members of St Andrews Church and also our friends at Rowbarton Methodist Church next door.  Sometimes we meet here in the Church and on other dates at Rowbarton Church Hall

These events are for families with children and include a Bible story and activities, lots of craft and there is always plenty to do.

At the end of each afternoon, tea is provided and we invite parents and family members to sit with the children to share together in the meal provided.

Check the dates below or on our calendar page or contact the Parish Office 01823 332531 to find out more.

For your information:
All our team at St Andrew’s have done Church of England approved Safeguarding training and are DBS checked.
