Introduction

The Church is located on Front Street in the centre of Whickham close to homes, schools and business premises.   

It is a single storey church with disabled access and has a worshipping capacity of about 100.

The seating arrangements are such that they can easily be adjusted to form a multi-purpose open plan space. We have a two storey Church hall, with a small kitchen and toilet facilities on the ground floor,  the lower floor is used for meetings and coffee mornings and we can seat, at tables 40-50 people. 

Traditional Sunday worship takes place each week at 10.30 am and includes Holy Communion approx once per month.

Own arrangement local worship uses a variety ideas ranging from members of the congregation choosing their favourite hymn or Bible verses to showing a DVD based on a topic of Scripture.

We have a regular organist/pianist to accompany our hymn singing but when she is not available we can use recorded music. 

Fellowship

A women's group meets on a Monday at 2.00 pm every fortnight throughout the year usually with an invited guest speaker, refreshments are served after the meeting.

Our Annual Christmas Tree Festival is scheduled for 7th, 8th & 9th December 2023.
