We are very happy to conduct christenings in any of the churches of the team. It is a wonderful way to gather friends and family, to thank God for a new arrival, to pray for their future and to begin an exciting journey of faith.
Some christenings take place in the main Sunday morning service, others take place at other times, often Sunday lunchtimes. If you live close to one of the churches or have links to a particular one, feel free to get in touch with the church directly or speak to one of the clergy team. Alternatively, you can make an initial enquiry by emailing the team.

If you don’t currently attend one of our churches, that is not a problem. We have a lot of family friendly services and activities aimed at different age ranges. You can find more information about them by visiting our family’s page. (Hyperlink)
We also conduct baptisms (another word for christenings) for adults wanting to take the next step on the journey of faith and sometimes baptise children and their parents at the same service. It is all part of our joyful response to God’s love.
