WORSHIP
Our church sanctuary is slightly unusual, being upstairs but it’s easy to find once you are through the front doors of the building! Access is fully accessible with a ramp leading up to the sanctuary. We offer a variety of ways to get involved in worship at the United Church. As well as two services on Sunday morning, we have a weekly service on a Friday morning and Messy Church for young people and their parents or guardians once a month. Being both Methodist and URC we tend to have a variety of women and men of both denominations leading our services which makes for a wealth of learning and experience.

PRAYER
Safe, home, whole
I long for your Spirit;
Holy Spirit, fall on me.
I long for your Spirit,
that I may feel your presence.
I long for your Spirit,
to quell the jumble of thoughts in my head.
I long for your Spirit,
to ease my aches and still my heart.
I long for your Spirit,
her peace, light, warmth;
enveloping, limitless communion,
where I am safe, home, whole.
Merciful God, have patience with me.
Kindly God, empty me of all that drains me.
Righteous God, wash me clean.
Teacher God, ask me the right questions.
I put my trust in you.
Be within me now and forever. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your Name,
your Kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours
now and for ever. Amen.
