Our Sunday Gathering

We gather at 10.30am every Sunday morning for an informal service of worship and teaching. After the service we like to enjoy refreshments together and hang around for tea & coffee. Our services don’t always follow the same format, and we love to be creative with our Sunday mornings.

If you’ve never been to church and would like to know more please click here or, if you have some specific questions, we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch with us here

Our services are also streamed on YouTube. If you’d like to watch any of our services, click here

Worship

Our morning services usually start with a time of celebration and sung worship. This normally lasts 20-25 minutes and will be directed from the front. All the words are on the screens so, if want to, you can sing along. We encourage you to relax and engage at your own pace, even if that means not singing at all. We encourage everyone to feel free to express their worship to God in whatever way they want to.

We don’t have rules about when to stand and sit. We don’t mind what you do! Sometimes the person leading the meeting may encourage everyone to stand up if they are willing and able.

Teaching

Normally after worship we have a relevant and meaningful talk. Our talks are challenging, biblical, inspiring and applicable to all of our lives. We design them to last around 20-30 minutes so you can rest assured that you won't be sitting in the service for hours!
A wide range of people preach at TCC. Sometimes it's members of the leadership team, or others within the church that are gifted communicators and a trusted part of the church. Sometimes we also have visiting speakers.
At the end of the talk we reflect on what we have heard and often give an opportunity to respond. This is also a time when we offer to pray for anyone who would like it. There are trusted members of the church who wear 'Here to Help' and 'Prayer Team' lanyards to help you to know who would be happy to pray or chat with you. We also encourage small groups to reflect on the subject of the talk in the week ahead.

Kids Church

During term time, we run Kid’s Church every other week for ages 4-11 (Reception – Year 6). Kid’s Church is a great environment where the kids have fun and learn about the Bible in creative and fun ways. Sue Garb, Director of Burton Youth For Christ heads up our Kid’s Church team.

Kid’s Church happens in their own room at our building across the road situated at Number One Ferry Street. All parents/carers are required to fill in a Consent Form before their children attend.  We operate a numbered signing in system for all children in Kid’s Church in line with our Safeguarding Policy. All our workers at Kid’s Church are DBS Checked. For more information about Kid’s Church, click here

If you have children under 4, we are happy for them to stay in the service and do our best to provide colouring and sometimes activities to keep them entertained. We don’t mind if they make noise!

There are baby changing facilities in the accessible toilet.
