FORMAL SERVICE WITH QUIET PRAYER AND REFLECTION

Junior Church for all school aged children, held in the choir vestry during our 10am Family Service.

Communion, Modern Worship Songs, and Family Space.

A time of reflection and prayer, with a different topic for discussion every week.
A safe place to ask questions and make new friends.

BRAND NEW SERVICE: ‘Sheltered’ - Sundays at 6pm - starting Nov 6th at St Mary’s Church Stoke, Ipswich. We are longing for all to know the goodness of God - to find both the peace and transformation that we are called into. This is a relaxed time to worship and to find your unique way in this world. There will be acoustic praise, prayer, a talk, refreshments, space for young people and adults to relax and enjoy yourselves. Come and be yourself, come and find a church family who want you to know you belong. Our time of prayer will be especially focused on the work of Selig (Hope into Action)

Once a month on Tuesday evenings as part of Stoke Youth Group we are going to be offering a cooking club. Suggested donation of £1 per child.
Please book your place to ensure we cater for all attending via EventBrite: https://eventbrite.com/e/family-coking-club-at-st-mary-stoke-church-hall-tickets-759073428057?aff=ebdsoporgprofile

This Advent we will be running a course called Start. 

Start is an introduction to Christian faith, it helps people:

Think about where they are going in their lives
Grapple with questions about God, Jesus and faith
Begin to discover the good news of Jesus for themselves
Consider how they want to respond to him

Start assumes no previous knowledge of anything Christian, the style of the course is informal, honest and hopefully fun!  It is also the perfect course for any Adult considering Baptism.

Start will be held in the Parish Office at 7pm – 8pm on:
4th, 11th, 18th December 2024
8th, 15th, 22nd January 202
