Messy Church

Messy Church is a fun, creative, and informal way for families to experience Church together.
We meet once a month to explore the Christian faith through hands-on activities, crafts, and games.
It is designed for parents, carers, and children of all ages to enjoy side-by-side.
You do not need to be a regular churchgoer to attend. Everyone is welcome exactly as they are.
