Messy Church

Messy Church is church for children and adults that involves creativity, celebration and hospitality.

  • It includes a welcome, a long creative time to explore the biblical theme through getting messy; a short worship time involving story, prayer, song, games and similar; and a sit-down meal together at tables.
  • It’s all-age.
  • It’s fun.
  • Its aim is to introduce Jesus, to give an opportunity to encounter him and to grow closer to him.
  • Our Messy Church meets once a term in each school on rotation from 3.15pm to 5pm.

All children must be accompanied by an adult!

Messy Church is a form of worship, known as a ‘Fresh Expression of Church’, for children and their parents or carers. It begins with a Bible story which is followed by a range of fun activities or crafts related to the theme. This culminates in a short act of worship followed by a shared meal.  If there are any special dietary requirements, please let us know with as much notice as possible.

We run these is in the three Primary schools in the Parish, on rotation each term from  3.15pm to 5pm.  The dates will be published on school newsletters, calendars and parish website.
