What is Messy Church?

messychurchjan 212x300 Messy ChurchMessy Church is NOT just another craft and activities club just for children! Messy Church is for the whole family and community– young & old alike, adults, children, teenagers, carers, grandparents, come as friends, families or partners, or come on your own, all are welcome.

If you think that church can be boring and irrelevant, then think again.

Messy Church is church with a difference. The emphasis of Messy Church is about learning about God in a fun and creative way, and about families enjoying quality time together. It is a church for families who find it hard to go to church on a Sunday, usually happens once every 4-6 weeks on a Saturday afternoon between 3-5pm.

Each month there are activities based around a particular theme, where people of all ages are encouraged to come and be involved, or just sit and relax with a cup of tea or coffee chatting to our team and making new friends following an hour or so of crafts and other activities then there is the celebration. Then there is food! There is a cheap and cheerful meal for everyone to enjoy time together before leaving. It doesn’t matter if you have been to church before or not, everyone is welcome at Messy Church.

 

 

  • It is an all-age church where everyone will be valued equally.
  • It provides an informal, relaxed environment for all-ages to explore and experience faith and worship through crafts, food and celebration.
  • It describes each and every one of us as no one is perfect and each of us lead messy lives for many reasons.
  • It invites us to come together, making things together, eating together and celebrating God together. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

Dates for Messy Church are:

17th March
26th May
23rd June

20th February is our next event happening  at Costa Ventura

Coton Green Church began this event on December 20th 2010 called cafechurch.

cafechurch is coffee with a conscience. It’s the fresh expression of community on the high street. It brings communities into the relaxed café atmosphere of Costa Coffee to deal with issues from a faith perspective.

At cafechurch you’ll tackle issues such as fair trade, the environment, stress, adoption, parenting, debt and divorce, together with quizzes, interviews, round table discussions, live music with great coffee and great chat!

The evening will contain all the usual elements such as quizzes, informal discussion

and a real life story from someone for whom this subject has been an issue.

Grab a coffee and come along.
