Key information about the church:


When & Where Does The Church Meet?

Our Church Service starts every Sunday at 10:00 am, and we have Pre-Service Prayer at 09:30 am at the back of the church in the prayer room. After service, we have a time of fellowship with some light refreshments.
 

What Should I Expect When I Visit The Church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. There will be approximately 30 minutes of singing with an opportunity for church members to pray, read a passage from the bible, or share a prophetic word of encouragement. After the notices, there will be a sermon from one of the leaders at the Church with a chance to respond at the end of the service.

Tea, coffee, and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions and to speak to one of our church leaders about knowing more about the Lord Jesus Christ, being baptised as a believer in Christ, and becoming an active member of the church in West Hendon.


Is There A Dress Code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.   
 

Will I Have To Join In?

Not at all! You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
 

What Children's Activities Take Place on Sundays At The Church? 

Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. Someone will announce when the children need to go to their program. You will need to go with your children and register them, the first time they attend.

We have a fantastic program for the kids at the Church:
Creche (Up to 3 years). Children must be accompanied by their parent/carer at all times.
Sunday School (ages 3-11 years)

All children, aged 3-11 will be in classes that are run in a Kidz Klub style (For more information: http://www.theurbanfamily.org.uk/kidzklub/ ).

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at the Church Building for our Sunday Service starting at 10am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after the church service. It is a great way to meet people. All refreshments are free.

Our Service

The main service begins at 10am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our band. We typically have 2 or 3 songs lasting approximately 20 minutes. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. Sometimes people share things that they believe God is saying to the whole church family. This might seem strange the first time you hear it but it’s all part of our connecting with God. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.

What about my kids?

Sunday school runs on the 2nd & 4th Sundays from 10:40 am to 11:50 am. On the 5th Sunday, we host a special event for all the children.
All children, aged 3-11 will be in classes that are run in a Kidz Klub style. 

Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for the welcome, songs and notices. We really value worshipping God all together as a family. At some point before the sermon someone will announce that it’s time for the Sunday School classes.

The kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, music, craft, drama, fun games and free play.

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out Small Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
