The St Clare’s Community meets for worship every Sunday at 12.00 pm.
If you would like to join us, just come along or contact us for Zoom details. See below for details of forthcoming services.
The service is a simple 45-60 minute communion service. We share bread and wine, look at the bible together and think about what God is doing in our lives. There are opportunities for everyone to participate if they want to, but nobody has to.
As we adjust to life with COVID we are asking people to attend via Zoom if they are feeling unwell, or make sure they have a negative LFT become coming.
After the service, we stay for chat and lunch together. Drinks and snacks are provided, and you are invited to bring a sandwich or the like to go with it.
You are welcome to just come along, or if you prefer, you can get in touch for a chat beforehand, or pop into the shop during the week.
Children are an important part of our community and welcome at all our services, but those services marked with an * below will include an activity especially suitable for our younger worshippers.
