CHILDREN'S CORNER
Sundays 10am at Wye Church
​
We have a dedicated children’s corner in Wye Church so we thought we would have the same on our website! This is where you’ll find information about child-friendly services, events and groups that are happening in the benefice each month.
The actual children’s corner is a carpeted area at the back of the church where you will find books, colouring pens, simple puzzles and toys. Older children will be invited to take an active role in the service such as reading the bible or carrying up the bread and wine for communion.
​
The fourth Sunday service, which has always been more informal and with lots of activities for children is now taking place at 11am. Hence its new name: Not the Ten O’Clock Service.
​
This service has a more relaxed style and is suitable for people of all ages not just families with children. It includes crafts, modern music and some sort of food and delicious coffee* as well as bible reading, a talk and prayer.
The next Service is on Sunday 28th April 2024 at 11am. All are welcome to this very informal service and we greatly look forward to seeing you there and welcoming new faces, both young and old.
*As part of our effort to be eco-friendly we would encourage you to bring your own reusable cup for your coffee which we will be happy to fill with wonderful, fresh-brewed coffee!

WYE AND BROOK FOREST CHURCH
Sunday 7th April at Wye Church
The next Forest Church session will be during the main 10am service at Wye Church on Sunday 7 April. We will all gather in church for the start of the service, and after the first hymn those who wish to participate in Forest Church will head outside into the churchyard for about half an hour, and return to the main service in time for communion. Young children will need to be accompanied by a parent/carer. We will have a short Bible story, some activities and crafts and outdoor prayers.
