Morning Worship

You are warmly invited to join us at whichever time suits you best. Our morning services are at 9.15am and 11.15am, however during the summer (from 18th July to 29th August) we meet all together for one service at 10.30am. The services are pretty well identical, last about 75 minutes and offer a relaxed place to learn about and encounter God. Both services include:

  1. Great music from our gifted team of musicians and singers
  2. Helpful and inspiring Bible teaching
  3. Crèche facilities
  4. Refreshments after the service

Recordings of many of our services are available on CD or mp3.

Songs of Praise at 4pm on the first Sunday of each month

Songs of Praise is a quieter, shorter service with more traditional songs and even better refreshments! We meet on the first Sunday of each month. We break for the summer and don't have a Songs of Praise service in August.

 

Reconnect at 7pm 

The opportunity to learn in different styles is at the heart of our evening programme which we call Reconnect. After about 30 minutes of contemporary worship we break into various streams which offer teaching in different styles. There are currently three to choose from:

  • Expository Space - normally led by Andrew Green, this takes a systematic look at a part of the Bible using a traditional preaching model. 
  • Interactive Space - this gives people the opportunity to ask questions, make comments and generally interact with others in the group and the passage being studied.  We start our Interactive Stream again from September when we look at 'Encounters with Jesus'.
  • Creative Space - led by Nick and Chloe Axford, this stream provides a quiet and meditative environment. This term we are looking at The Art of the Divine. Using works of art, some well known, others not so well known to explore truths about God, his relationship with us, and our relationship with the world. Each week in the series we use a different artwork as our starting point. The aim is not only to learn something about the picture or sculpture and the meaning behind it, but also to use it as a springboard to meditate on the image in front of us and ask God to speak to us through it. Click here for our current Creative Space programme.

Evening Worship at 8pm (from 25th July to 22nd August)

Throughout the summer term our evening service changes so we all meet together from 8pm for a time of contemporary worship followed by a time of teaching.

There is also a youth stream called 'Baseline' for 11-18s, which is held in the Basement (for further information check out www.uvyouth.org.uk).
