Your first Sunday, briefly

What happens, how long it lasts, and what nobody will ask you to do.

The Light's House2 min read

Morning light spilling through an open doorway into a warm church gathering space.

In short

Arrive a few minutes early, sit anywhere, and stay for a coffee if you like. Nobody will put you on the spot.

Walking into a church for the first time can feel like walking into someone else’s family gathering. Here is what to expect, so nothing surprises you.

The shape of the morning

We gather at 10am. There is music, a short time of prayer, and teaching from the Bible in plain language. The whole thing runs for about an hour and a half.

What you won’t be asked to do

You will not be asked to stand up, introduce yourself or give. Sit anywhere. Join in as much or as little as you like.

If you would rather watch first, every Sunday is streamed live. Come as you are, either way.
