What to Expect in Our All-Age Café Style Service
These Café-Style Worship services weave scripture, drama, reflection, conversation, and media together. They have been designed for worship around tables.
Cafe Style
The café element comes from the change in seating arrangements, where the regular rows are replaced with tables (usually with biscuits!). There are usually a variety of activities for all ages to participate in, from table prayers to colouring activities, word searches, and other creative options. Because of this, refreshments are served during the service.
This helps people feel more at home in church. If you haven’t attended church before, this service is for you!
These services usually last between 45 minutes.
