Fridays

Friday is our main day and bigger than a Sunday in many ways. It's a smaller crowd but we do more and for longer. We begin at 10am, when we meet on the hill overlooking South Road. See map.

​

Fridays are absolutely lush, and often people coming for the first time in-person start here because there's usually only around 15-25 of us including babies and children, and it's easy to dip in and out of.

 

We spend the whole day flowing from one part of the village to the next focusing on different ways to know and love God, and people join us for however long they are able, and at whichever point works best.

 

We begin with a walk in the woods where we pray for our community and each other, following the Northumbria Community tradition of Morning Prayer.

 

After prayers we head to The Bank, a community cafe, for refreshments and chat.

​

At lunchtime we go to our church site in the woods and set up for Holy Communion. We light the campfire, hear from the Bible and discuss what it says, bake bread, read a book together, pray and share in Jesus' holy meal. We often stay to enjoy the woods and listen to music or chat. People leave when they need to and most of us are usually gone by 3pm.
