Services

We have a variety of service styles at St Mark’s, with something for everyone!

The first Sunday of each month at 10.30am is a more traditional service with teaching and hymns with piano or organ accompaniment.

Messy Church meets on various Sunday’s throughout the year at 3.30pm - 3rd March, 5th May, 7th July, 6th October and 1st December - a family service with crafts, activities, singing and food!

The 10:30am for the rest of the month is a more modern worship service, usually led by a band. Services take place in a relaxed family friendly atmosphere and are lively with lots of people taking part. Our children’s groups run every week (apart from the first of the month) during term time.

The 10.30am service is also broadcast on our YouTube channel, making it easy to see what a typical service looks like. Click here to take a look.
