Oakwood | Gorse Covert | Fearnhead | Bible Study

Home Groups were established within our Church Community during the 2nd half of 2002 and are increasing in their popularity.

Their aim is for the participants to meet together for:

  • mutual encouragement

  • praying for each other

  • interactive Bible studies/discussion

From time to time, there are special events such as meals, outings, games and various other social activities.


The Oakwood Group

  • Weekly, Mondays starting at 1.30pm

  • Weekly, Wednesdays starting 8:00 p.m.

  • Various homes


The Gorse Covert Group

The Lockingstumps Group

  • Meet at 8pm on Tuesdays fortnightly, at various homes, please contact James Towers on 01925 813937 to find out where we are meeting.

  • Aim:
    To be the engine room of church life for those who attend; energising our relationship with God, prayer life, fellowship, and love for one another.

  • Objective:
    The impact on our personal relationship with Jesus will cause us to spend more time with him, enrich our relationships with each other and cause us to want to share this with others. The teaching is aimed at having a few simple pointers but also some deeper elements, so that all can get something from the meeting.

  • How:
    Meeting is informal, based on a theme from the bible, which is used to guide our praying and discussion. This format gives people an opportunity to contribute, ask questions, pray or just listen as they feel lead. The group is very friendly and welcomes people to come along, as they are able to.

Thanks to James for providing the information about this Group.

  • Objective:
