Midweek - Adults
For us, Christianity is about how we express our faith during the week as well as what we do on a Sunday. The common theme is to give guidance and encouragement for our everyday lives.
Please check times and dates of these events with the Parish Office or in our monthly diaries before attending to save disappointment.
T.G.I.F.

Come worship to the full!
Monthly Friday worship, 8pm at St Luke's
House groups
There are lots of house groups and each one has its own style. As a generalisation about 10 people meet for two hours during an evening every week or fortnight. The superficial conversation that can sometimes dominate the coffee time at Sunday church is replaced by discussion over the issues that really matter. But there's lots of light hearted banter too. Many people have said their participation in a house group has helped them grow in their faith.
CAFÉ
CAFÉ stands for "Come and Find Encouragement". A midweek session for women to meet, chat and hear from a speaker. Held at St Luke's Church.
Days vary; for more information and dates download our current term programme.

Men's Breakfast
Breakfast (cooked by men) on a Saturday morning once a term. Its purpose is to equip men to be as God intended.
The Listening Ear
Every Thursday (from 7th August 2008) St Luke’s foyer is open from 10.30am to 1.00pm for people who need the space and time to talk through any issues they are having difficulty with.
A small team of trained ‘listeners’ are available, not to give advice or try to solve problems, but to give people the opportunity to share their thoughts and concerns.
This is open to all members of the community
Pop-In
A very popular daytime meeting on Mondays from 1.30pm to 4.00pm. There are two groups, one at St Luke's and another at Moor Lane Church. The format is light refreshments, chat, reminisce and listen to a visiting speaker on a range of Christian or non-Christian subjects. Average attendance is about sixty.
Acorn
Over 30 young mums with Pre-school age children, mostly non-Christian, meet at Moor Lane Church on a Thursday morning during term time to meet friends and make new ones. Acorn is described, "as much for the toddlers as it is for the Mums".
See our Acorn Club page for more details.
