Church Activities & Groups

Giving Holy Communion to those unable to attend church:
In addition to giving Holy Communion at its regular services, every month the church takes Holy Communion to several homes for those who are unable to attend a Holy Communion Service.

Small interest groups:
Members of the parish have established a number of small groups with common interests, including a music group, morning and evening women's groups and groups for prayer, bible study and pastoral care.
