Church – but not as you know it!
We recognise that lives are busy, distractions are many, and time to relax together is precious.
At St John’s our Messy Church is based on Jesus’ words‘I have come that you may have life in all its fulness’. (John 10:10)
For us that means having time for everyone of any age and activity level to get together to explore and celebrate Life in its widest sense.
Our Messy events are for all ages and a chance to have fun, get creative and be curious together, alongside options to experience reflection/prayer in hands-on ways.
Each event is free. They last around 1.5 hours and are held in our fully accessible church hall, usually starting at 3pm. Sometimes we will spill over into our garden or other church buildings.
There will be a mix of
- Creative and craft opportunities
- Things to make and take home,
- Solo and/or group challenges such as lego and junk modelling,
- Opportunities to explore reflection/prayer in different hands-on ways·
- A celebration bringing together the theme of the day
- Followed by refreshments, cake and biscuits
