Lord's Supper (Joint Benefice Service)
|
The 8am services at Ardleigh are based on the traditional words in the
Book of Common Prayer (BCP).
Our second Sunday of the month service at Dedham and the third Sunday of the month at Ardleigh uses more contemporary words from
Common Worship (CW).
Morning services at Dedham are at
9.30am unless it is the second Sunday of the month (which begins at 11 o'clock).
We review our service patterns regularly to ensure we offer a broad range of services to all.
We also have some more contemporary services each month:
 |
Café Church is our breakfast-style, welcoming and relaxed service at Ardleigh for the whole family. We start with refreshments, have a children-friendly slot, run some activities in the Children's Corner (when adults can enjoy some downtime!), sing some songs, pray and enjoy a hot beverage and biscuits to finish. There's something for everyone! |
 |
Rise 'n Shine all-age service at Dedham first Sunday each month at 9.30am. This will be for no more than 45 minutes and welcomes people of all ages, including families with primary school-age children! |
 |
Revive@5 on the third Sunday each month has a more informal feel. We gather for tea, coffee and hot chocolate from 4.30pm and the service lasts from 5-6pm with contemporary songs, prayer, testimonies and bible teaching. |
Whichever service you come to you will find a warm welcome, engaging and relevant teaching from the Bible and opportunities to be quiet alongside times of singing together. We hope to see you at one soon!
