BELONG

Jesus offers us LIFE – the life of the world to come.  And he makes this LIFE available for everyone and anyone who will open themselves up to his Kingdom message.  

Here at St Mary’s we want to enable everyone to access this LIFE as fully as possible and we want to help you, whatever age or life stage you are at, to engage in ways that will satisfy, challenge and stretch you. 

Christianity is not a set of beliefs but a way of life. Having received forgiveness and renewal through Jesus he then calls us to participate in his life, his mission and his church. Here’s a few ways you can do this at St Mary’s.

Sundays

Gathering for worship has been the principle way that Christian disciples have both expressed their allegiance to Christ and to his family – the church.  Church is not something we attend.  It is something we are.  But we prioritise gathering as a ‘church’ each week to worship, to learn and to minister to one another.  The best way of participating in this LIFE is with others who are committed to journeying with you.

St Mary’s is a multi-site church.  Currently we gather at St Mary’s and also at the Heath Church.  United in a common vision, we worship in a range of different places, times and styles so that all ages and people can find a place among us.

Life Groups

We each long for community, but we also need community to grow and change.  That’s why we place such a high priority on LIFE GROUPS that meet in people’s homes each week.  These are vital places of transformation, growth and change. If you are not already part of one do get in touch and we can help you work out which ones might be good to try out.

Community Impact Teams

Impact Teams are teams of people who volunteer their time to serve the needs of others in a wide variety of ways.  Some examples of these teams are:

Church Teams

There are numerous teams in our church life that enable us to fulfil our mission.  If you are interested in being involved, do let us know.  Here are some of the teams that currently make everything work behind the scenes:
