Planning Your First Visit?
We’re so glad you’re thinking of joining us. Whether you’re exploring faith or looking for a church to call home, you are very welcome here.
Here’s what you can expect when you come along:
What happens in our Sunday services:
Contemporary worship led by a live band
Bible-based teaching that applies to everyday life
Prayer and ministry time
Refreshments and conversation afterwards
Our meetings usually last around 90 minutes, with time to connect over tea and coffee at the end.
Bringing children?
We love having families with us. Children and young people are an important part of our church family.
At South Ockendon, we run dedicated children’s and youth groups once a month. Our welcome team can let you know what’s happening that day and help you get settled. All our children’s volunteers are trained and DBS-checked.
On weeks where groups are not running, we provide activity sheets and quiet resources so children can still feel engaged and included in the service.
When you arrive:
Look out for our welcome team in blue t-shirts. They’ll be ready to greet you, answer any questions, and help you feel at home.
Whether you’re coming on your own or with others, you won’t be left standing on your own. We’d love to get to know you.
