We meet once a month on a Sunday for a Common-worship communion with hymns and an address. Our main social event is a (roughly) monthly breakfast at the Down Inn. We sometimes host outdoor "Forest Church" services and share walks organised via Billingsley Church. Please visit us at any of these events or just spend time in the church.
