Sunday Services
On Sundays, we offer hybrid services which allow for both those who wish to attend church in person and others to be able to join in online. You can find more information about our different services below. You no longer need to book to attend services so do just come along. We'd love to welcome you, and look forward to seeing you there.
9:30AM NORTHCOURT ROAD SERVICE
At our 9:30 intergenerational service you will find contemporary teaching with lively, band-led worship. We have regular interviews about real-life faith as well as updates on different ministry areas here at Christ Church. You can join in person or online as we livestream this service on our YouTube Channel. On the 2nd Sunday of the month, we gather around the Lord’s table to share communion.
Children and youth ministries run alongside this service, offering groups for under 5s, 5-11s and 11-14s. For further details visit our Kids & Youth pages. After the service, refreshments are available in the Church Hall. We enjoy this time of fellowship and it’s a great opportunity to chat with others and meet new people.
10AM LONG FURLONG WORSHIP
Our Long Furlong congregation meets in-person at Long Furlong Primary School and online via Zoom. We come together for a friendly and informal service offering time in prayer, scripture and band-led worship, singing a range of newer and older worship songs.
We celebrate God’s love shown to us in Christ by creating a loving, family-like atmosphere within our congregation. Our desire is to be a missional congregation, “roots down, branches out” - with our roots deep down into Christ, and reaching out to our neighbourhood. We welcome all ages and offer children and youth groups which run during the service. We regularly hold fun, intergenerational socials and welcome teas for both newcomers and others wanting to meet new people.
11:20AM NORTHCOURT ROAD SERVICE
At our 11:20 service, you will find sung worship led by a wider range of instruments drawing on a mix of hymns and well-known worship songs. We seek to worship in creative ways whilst also including familiar liturgy, spending time in prayer and listening to teaching on God’s word. We come together to share communion twice a month, following either the Book of Common Prayer (1st Sunday of the month) or Common Worship liturgy (3rd Sunday of the month).
Before this service, we offer the opportunity to join with those who have attended the 9:30am service to share in some time of fellowship and refreshments from 11am in the Church Hall.
6:30PM EVENING SERVICE at NORTHCOURT ROAD
A relaxed and informal service which always includes an extended time of contemporary band-led worship. We listen to engaging talks from God's word. We pray, and also offer personal prayer after the service.
We love that the congregation is wide-ranging, drawn from our Youth and 18-30s groups, through to our most senior church members. One of our key goals is to build community together - at many services someone will share how God has met them in their lives. On the 4th Sunday of the month we share communion together. Afterwards, we catch up with friends over refreshments, and spend time meeting new people.
