Two Sunday gatherings, one church family

Morning in Thatcham, evening in Newbury. Same church, same welcome. Choose whichever suits your Sunday.

First time?

Feeling a little nervous is completely normal.

You don’t need to know anyone or anything to come along. If you’d like to say hello first, email us, or watch a past service online before you visit.

Your first Sunday
  1. A friendly welcome

    Someone will be there to greet you as you arrive.

  2. Worship and the Bible

    We sing contemporary worship together and hear teaching from the Bible.

  3. Time to connect

    Coffee after the morning service and during the evening one. Stay as long as you like.
