Events
Come join us at the many events held at Christ Church Shooters Hill
Toddler Play Group (Wednesdays 9.10-11am)
Christ Church Toddler Playgroup is a lovely, warm and welcoming group, and is one of the ways in which we seek to serve our community. It's held in the church hall on Wednesday mornings from 9.10am.
We begin with tea/coffee, followed by play time, snack time and story time, where we read a Bible story together. We finish each session with nursery rhymes.
These stay and play sessions provide an opportunity for parents/carers and their children under 5 years of age to meet, engage with a selection of free play toys and activities, have refreshments and enjoy a song and rhyme time together.
Please bring your own healthy snack and drink. Suggested donation £1 per child. Term time only, starting second week back.
Messy Church
A morning filled with creative activities and games for younger, messier people and their parents.
It is an opportunity for parents and children to learn together about the Christian faith by engaging in (messy) craft activities and a short service.
Followed by a delicious lunch for all.
Please speak to Mtr Ariadne, David, or Siefe if you'd like to help
Confirmation Classes
Most of us were probably baptised as children and promises were made on our behalf by our parents and godparents. Hopefully, there'll come a time when we want to make those promises on our own behalf. That is what Confirmation is about: repeating those promises in front of the Bishop and then being confirmed by him. In this parish the minimum age for Confirmation is 14. If you are interested in being confirmed, please contact Mtr Ariadne. For adults, Confirmation classes are often combined with the Exploring Faith Course (see below).
Pilgrim Course
We have a group that studies books from the Pilgrim Course. We meet once a month on a Saturday morning at the vicarage. Please contact Mtr Ariadne if you'd like to join.
Social Events
We hold regular social events throughout the year and welcome all from the community. Events such as the "Christ Church Bake Off", our St Nicholas Event, the "Nearly New Sale" where we raise money for charity, and our "International Food Festival" where we enjoy foods shared by our diverse congregation. Details of these events can be found on our home page, or please contact Mtr Ariadne.
Our next Social event is our Summer Barbecue on 29th June, 11.15am - 2pm.
Come and join us for chicken wings; jollof rice; burgers; sausages and vegan alternatives. There will also be cakes and salads.
There will be a small charge per portion of food to cover our costs.
Do come and join us for some delicious food and great company!
