Normal service details...

Sunday Services...

The morning service is held in the main Church building in Saxe Coburg Street. The service is followed by tea and coffee, which is served in the church halls at the back of the church.

Evening services are held from October until Easter. The services follow a monthly pattern. On the first Sunday in the month the service takes place in the Church and is more reflective in style. On the second Sunday of each month the service takes place at Trust Housing (sheltered housing). On the third Sunday of the month we have a multi-sensory service in the Church. On the fourth Sunday of the month the service is in Veitch's Square (sheltered housing).

Welcome

When you enter the church a member of our welcome team will greet you and give you a hymn book and a service sheet. The service sheet gives details of the morning service and also contains notices of other forthcoming events.

Children

Children are very welcome at Stockbridge and play an important role in all our services. They participate in the first part of each service before going through to Young Church in the halls behind the church. At some services such as Christmas and Easter they stay in the church for the full service with plenty of activities to keep them busy!

Holy Communion

We celebrate Communion on the last Sunday of each month.

MusicMusic plays an important part of our worship. Our Director of Music is Marion Lees McPherson and she is supported by Esther Chuang. The choir meets on Sunday mornings at 10am. They are always keen to welcome enthusiastic singers, whether or not they read music. Please speak to Marion after the service for more information.
