Saturday 15 March
2.15pm-5.15pm at Old Lakenham Community Centre nr Norwich
How can you be church in new ways for different people in different situations, welcoming them as part of your worshipping community? Messy Church is a fresh tool for growth for anyone looking to reach out to their community.

Messy Church will help you:

  • create a worshipping community of all ages, centred on Christ, showing Christian hospitality
  • give people a chance to express their creativity, sit and eat a meal together and have fun in a church context.
  • celebrate God together through his work, music and prayer
  • reach those for whom traditional church makes little sense.

It's structured, fun and underpinned with worship.

Lucy Moore, author of Messy Church and a member of BRF's Barnabas Team will introduce the concept, the practicalities, the aims, the outcomes and the next step at two half-day seminars on March 15th. Choose either venue.
