Where We Meet

We meet at 4pm on Sunday afternoons, at Buxton Village Hall.  This is our family gathering and we encourage all our members to come and join in whenever they can.  

Our services are led by members and look different week to week. They generally involve music, praying, a Bible reading and a talk as well as family news and updates.

Most of the people who come each week call themselves Christians but we also welcome those who are exploring the Christian faith or who want to be part of our community. You can join in with as much or as little as you like; all our services and meetings assume that there are people among us who do not currently follow Jesus, meaning we don't assume that people have been to church before and there is no dress code.  If there is ever anything that you don't quite understand, we would love you to bring it up with someone who you have seen up front.

All ages are welcome to stay in the meeting, from the youngest to the oldest.  We provide activities for kids and there are bits specifically addressed to them throughout the service. If you have young children who are making noise, you’re still very welcome. We don’t mind some noise at all because Jesus said “let the little children come to me”, and so we have a creche area in our main meeting space - and if you would be more comfortable, we have a separate creche room where the whole service is broadcast.

The meeting itself runs for between 60 - 90 minutes, and we conclude our time together with tea, locally roasted coffee from Java Bean in Badesfield and delicious cake from Bread-Source bakery.

Twice in a month, we share bread and wine together to celebrate the Lord’s Supper, a meal where Jesus meets with his followers as they remember his death and resurrection. Whenever we celebrate this we also have non-alcoholic juice and gluten-free options available too.
