SUNDAY 25TH OCTOBER 2026
11am-Sung Holy Communion on Bible Sunday, followed by tea, coffee and cake. Christians believe that through the many voices and stories of the Bible we can hear God speaking to us today. How do we listen? At this special service we will explore what the Bible means to us and how we use and understand it: comparing different translations, thinking about how we approach difficult or challenging passages and asking how Scripture continues to speak into our lives and our world.
