NEW LIFE FAMILY WORSHIP THIS SUNDAY 13TH AT 4PM -5.30PM
Family life with children is messy! We don't shy away from getting our hand involved in all sorts of different exciting and and imaginative craft activites. Some things we make to take home, some for gift to give away and some to decorate the Church building for all the visitor to admire!
Singing is good for you and God loves to hear our joyful noise!
We learn new songs and sing our favorites again. The words are sometimes accompanied with MAKATON signs that are a fun way to bring the songs alive. The New Life choir is for everyone of all ages and abilities.
Sharing ideas, time, food and support is best done when your not alone. Simply being with others brings life to all.
PIZZA ANYONE?
Following worship time we dinner together. This will cater for as many eater types as we can, so let us know your allergies, intolerance's or if you are vegetarian or vegan. Let us know your favorite and we'll be sure to try it out! This time following the worship encourages us to chat and share something of our lives with each other.
We are a church that believes in inclusivity – we celebrate and value people, regardless of their abilities, backgrounds, and diversities. We are a church that serves all people. We strive to be fully inclusive and remove barriers neurodivergent people may face in our church.
“I passionately believe that these kinds of conversations – and especially this kind of deep listening to those with lived experience of disability – is absolutely vital if we are to be a Church where everyone is valued and everyone belongs”. Archbishop of Canterbury, Church of England national disability conference 2018.
Neurodiversity, put simply, can be broken down into the two words it is made up of. ‘Neuro’ meaning it is to do with the brain – an amazing thing that makes sense of the world around us – what we see, touch, taste, smell, hear; if we are hungry or tired, hot or cold; our feelings and emotions, how we move and relate to the physical things around us – and so much more. The word ‘diversity’ refers to a difference. These words placed together, talk about a difference in the way neurodiverse people experience and relate to the world around them. There are many myths and misunderstandings about neurodiversity, such as it people lacking empathy and creativity, being unable to make friends, resulting from bad parenting.- these are all untrue. Neurodiverse conditions are life-long, and differences are experienced in unique ways. Neurodiverse people are people of different backgrounds, ages, personalities, educational abilities, interests, jobs – and all loved and created by our wonderful God. They are as likely as anyone else to be Christians and want to worship alongside others in church.
