Gather on Sundays
Sundays at Central
Coming along to a church gathering for the first time can be daunting. But having an idea about what to expect can make it easier. We’d love to help you find your feet and introduce you to some of the family.
Our Sunday Gatherings are a chance to hang out and spend time worshipping God, read the bible, listen to a talk and share some stories together. Everyone is welcome!
We usually gather three times on a Sunday, at 9.15am, 10.30am & 7pm
On the last Sunday of the month we have All Out Sundays where there are no Gatherings at Central Hall and we scatter across the city in our Communities. Find out more about this below.
9.15am
Join us for our shorter, more reflective Gathering. If you prefer a quieter gathering, this one’s for you.
10.30am
Come and share an informal time of worship, a talk and prayer. There are kids & youth programmes. This Gathering is also livestreamed on YouTube.
7pm
Come along to our informal evening Gathering for worship, a talk and chance to pray together. (This one is particularly popular with Students and Young Adults.)
All Out Sunday
On the last Sunday of each month, we have ‘All Out’ Sunday. On these Sundays, there are no usual Gatherings at Central Hall. Instead, we encourage our Communities to meet together in their local contexts. From prayer-walks and hospitality, through to litter picking, it’s totally up to each Community how they choose to spend this time.
Across this Sunday our church building is still used by our Communities and our Cafe Sessions, and we invite you to join us as we finish up the day in prayer and worship at our Presence night.
Not part of a Community yet? Take a look at our Communities page or get in touch to find out how to join one.
Cafe Sessions
As we pause our usual Sunday Gathering rhythm, we make space to reflect on what God has been saying to us through the preaching this month and to summarise the key theological lessons that we are learning about God and living for him in our world today, through teaching and discussion. It’s open to anyone in our church and there’s no need to sign up. Stay on for a cuppa at the All Out Cafe, run by one of our Communities.
Join us on the last Sunday of the month, 9.15am, Auditorium
Presence
On the last Sunday of the month we also gather to worship, pray, and intercede together for our church and city. These are deep times of Spirit-filled encounter.
Join us on the last Sunday of the month, 7pm, The Hall
