Five and a bit years ago I took my first, apprehensive steps into Uplyme Church. Apprehensive because I didn’t know then what I know now: that Uplyme Church is filled with the kindest people with the warmest hearts. It is sad to say goodbye, but it is more of a fond farewell and “see you around” as I am not going far. But, for now, my work here is done and I am venturing off to cause chaos in someone else’s office; and if the people are half as nice as the funny, compassionate and generous people here, I will consider myself so very lucky.
Goodbye and all my love,
Fran

Sunday Worship Worship at Uplyme Church
Regular communal worship provides an opportunity for us to meet with God, worship together and find fellowship. We aim to provide regular communal worship in a variety of styles which are relevant to those around us. Our worship involves, and is often lead, by a team of church members.
10am Morning Worship
Is relatively informal, contemporary and inclusive. We use uncomplicated, modern liturgy and a wide range of hymns and songs. Children are always welcome and we run Junior Church, in the adjacent school building most weeks of term time. Communion is usually on the first and third Sundays of the month.
Café Worship
Takes place at around 9.30am on the last Sunday of the month, be that 4th or 5th. It is a simple, informal worship service, with dvds or films, activities for all ages, discussion groups, songs and prayers. As the name suggests, refreshments are served beforehand and throughout.
6pm Evening Worship
Is quiet, contemplative and seasonal. We draw on the rich tapestry of Christian liturgy and worship. Communion or an Agape Meal is usually on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. |
