Our service will briefly examine the contribution of four people from this period whose work left a lasting legacy and our worship will be enriched by music from this period supported by the choir and the praise band. Do come and invite your friends to join us for what we hope will be an interesting and uplifting service. An important part of these Sundays@Six is the opportunity they give for fellowship after the services. So, when you read the invitation to stay behind for tea/coffee and refreshments, please don’t rush away!
