Messy Church

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.’ Proverbs 22:6

NEXT – Christmas Edition on Tuesday 17 December

What is Messy Church? Messy Church uses hands-on activities to explore Bible stories, to reflect a God of creativity and to give people a chance to play together. Hospitality is at the heart of what we do and all are invited to share a home cooked meal at the end of the session. Messy church is fun – reflecting a God of joy who wants everyone to enjoy life in all its fullness.

Celebration may appear as simply food and fun on the surface, but these symbols stand for the deeper rhythms of faith that well up from unconditional love, restoration, reconciliation, sacrifice, belonging and homecoming among many others. It’s no mistake that some Christians ‘celebrate’ the Eucharist. That spirit of meaningful celebration is present in Messy Church too.
