We are excited to welcome Jubilee Singers to our chapel for an afternoon of A Choral Miscellany, featuring music spanning five centuries!
Free admission with a retiring collection to support the work of the Trussell Trust.
A crash course on the development of Unitarian thought.
Our new monthly group explores the history of Unitarianism, exploring many different thread that led us to where we are today. The group: “Unitarian 101: history and thought” will be meeting in the last week of the month, with exception of February (we will meet a week earlier).
The format will take us on a journey through time, session by session. Each meeting will begin with a volunteer delivering a 10-minute(ish) presentation on a topic announced in advance. After the presentation, the minister will add some additional insights, and then we’ll open the floor for discussion. Together, we’ll explore the significance of these events and their impact on who we are today.
In-person in the chapel and via the Sunday Service zoom link
Pop in for a free cuppa in our beautiful Garden Room overlooking our peaceful grounds. Come and relax, chat and connect with new people. We welcome all who are welcoming! We usually meet in the Garden Room, but on nice days over Summer we make the most of our garden and sit outside enjoying the calm oasis in dappled shade in the heart of our busy city.
What to expect: A cuppa, cakes or biscuits, and a small group (usually between 5 and 12 people) made up of people of various ages (from Uni student to pensioners) and of diverse interests. You can pop in at any time between 11am and 1pm. And if you wish you can stay for the MidWeek Recharge meditation service at 1pm.
Our Coffee Mornings are part of the Places of Welcome network.
What’s the better way to spend your Sunday afternoon than some board games in a good company? Come and play with us: Scrabble, Codenames, Codenames Duet, Ticket to Ride, Patchwork, Onitama, Bananagrams, Stratego, Quoridor, Camel Up, The Mind, Mindbug, Backgammon, Qwirkle, Azul, Ocean Pods, Four Corners Kaleidoscope, or Monopoly! You are more than welcome to bring your own board games too.
Additionally, we usually bring some light snacks to share so that we don’t play on empty stomachs! 🙂
We have made the decision to transform our services on the first Sunday of the month into more relaxed family-friendly worship experiences. These services will centre children and young people, will be lighter in their content, and there will usually be some form of sensory/experiential prayer or meditation. It also means that the needs of children (as well as anyone who may find it difficult to remain quiet for a full hour!) will be centred.
In our services, you should never worry about needing to fidget, make a little noise, or walk around a bit, but at the Relaxed Family Services, it will be even more welcome!
And afterwards: a board game afternoon with bring-and-share lunch as usual!
