Baptism
Beginning a wonderful journey
Baptism is the first step on an amazing journey of faith. Through baptism we become part of the community of the church: the child’s family and friends along with the people of the church make promises to welcome and uphold them from this moment as they enter into their new life in Jesus Christ. We rejoice in every new member of God’s kingdom and would be delighted to discuss baptism with you.
Marriage
Reflecting the love of God
Marrying in church is personal, meaningful, spiritual and beautiful, just as you want it to be and we would be delighted to welcome you to one of our churches.
Our administrator will arrange an initial meeting with a member of the clergy, after which you will be supported throughout the whole process. It can seem daunting at first, but don’t worry, you will be in excellent hands throughout and there is much guidance available that will assist you on your journey.
Funerals
With you every step of the way
We are here to care for you and support you at this difficult time, and to help and guide you through the process along with your chosen funeral director. We will help and advise you in making choices about the service, to ensure that as far as possible the wishes of the person who has died and of you and your family are met.
Adult Baptism
A response to God’s love
Whenever it happens, whether as a baby, child or adult, baptism is at the heart of an amazing journey of faith as a follower of Jesus Christ. You are never too old to take this step, and being baptized as an adult is a wonderful experience. You may have been baptized at a christening when you were a child or in a different Christian tradition, and there are always special ways to renew the promises that were made then in a fresh way as you discover more about what it means to live them out in your life.
Confirmation
Affirming your faith
For those who have been baptised as babies, confirmation means taking personal responsibility for the vows that were made on the child’s behalf by parents and godparents. Many young people choose this step during their teens. For others, the time may not be right until much later in life. Adults who have not been baptised often choose to be baptised and confirmed in one service.
Vocation
What is God’s plan for you?
Vocation means what you are called by God to be and do. For some, this is a specific calling to ministry. For others, it could mean serving God through faithful discipleship in everyday life. Everyone has a vocation. Find yours.
