Sundays
Every Sunday The Whole church Gets together to worship
We believe that Church is 24/7… As part of that our Sunday gatherings give us the chance to worship God together and connect as a family.
Sunday mornings have two services which have different styles of worship but embrace the same heart – to love and live generously like Jesus.
9.15am Gathering
Every Sunday at Parklands Church, SA2 8HQ
The first service is our more reflective service that runs from 9.15 – 10.30. Expect acoustic worship music, open times of prayer and a 30 minute talk based on the Bible. Everyone is welcome to this service but we currently do not run Kids Church during this service
11.00Am Gathering
Every Sunday at Parklands Church, SA2 8HQ
This is our larger and livelier celebration service. Expect louder contemporary songs and music, and a 25/30 min talk based on the Bible. Everyone is welcome and we run a lively Kid’s and Youth programme during this service. We always finish with a chance to get to know each other better and an opportunity make new friends over a cup of fab coffee or tea.
What to expect
Music
We are passionate about worship and making it relevant and accessible to all. Playing a mix of old and new the worship team tend to use contemporary songs and music to help us all engage with God.

Bible Teaching
We love the Bible and believe it brings colour and life to our lives. Each week we have a 25/30 min talk that helps us unpack the Bible and how its teachings apply to our every day lives.
Youth & Children's Activities
Children are invaluable to us and we love the fun and vibrancy that children bring. Children and families are welcome with open arms. We provide a mixed programme of children’s fun activities each Sunday to help kids engage with God through play, crafts, multi-media and stories.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear?
Come as you are but preferably come wearing some clothes to save our blushes! There’s no dress-code, we want people to feel comfortable and most of us are in jeans or shorts in the summer, but if you want to dress up, we love that too!
Where should I park?
We have a car park alongside our Church building and we encourage everyone who comes along to try and use our car park, however, sometimes people may need to park in our surrounding neighbourhood. We just ask that you please respect our neighbours and avoid parking across drives and dropped kerbs.
How long is a Sunday service?
The 9.15am lasts for 1hr 15 mins and the 11am typically lasts 1hr 30mins. But please feel free to hang around after the service has finished to chat and meet new friends.
Do I have to pay anything?
No. During the service a bucket/basket will be passed along the rows in which people are able to make donations to the church, but this is not compulsory. If you do not wish to make a donation, please just pass the bucket to the person next to you.
Children/Youth
There is a Crèche (0-2’s) with a TV feed to the main meeting so you can watch the service, we ask parents/carers to stay with their children in our Crèche. Kids ages 2-11 should be checked in when they arrive at Church, they will be part of the main 11am service for about 20 mins then go out to their own Kids Church. Our Youth (11-14) programme will also run during the 11am and it will be announced from the front when it’s time for the Youth to go their group.
Do you have wheelchair Access?
The meeting room is laid out with wheelchair access in mind. The aisles are sufficiently wide to navigate a wheelchair through, and we keep a space clear at the front where wheelchair users can sit and see the screens easily. There is also a disabled accessible toilet in the main hallway.
Be Greeted
We know that for many visiting a church can be a leap into the unknown. If you would love to come but are not sure what to expect we would love to introduce you to a friendly face before the gathering. They will then sit with you throughout the service and answer any questions you may have.
