A Message from our Minister : Martyn Coe

You may have heard that some churches try to turn people away because of their sexuality, home circumstances or struggles with life. We believe that those churches are trying to limit what God has to say to us and we are trying to listen and find the best ways to seek God in our lives. We try to welcome everyone who wants to be in community with us so we say, 'individuals, families and households of all shapes and sizes are welcome'. If you would like to discuss your faith journey or life issues please get in touch.

 Our friends from The United Church of Christ (in the USA) have produced a  90 second ad asking 'what is the language of Christ' you can find it on this link

The welcome we offer is different from some other churches. On Sunday morning 11am worship at St Mark's Greenwich South St  to those who have been to church before there will be some familiarity. It is, however, more informal than many other churches and we offer a welcome to all who wish to join with us.While we sing hymns and share in prayer and thought, youngsters can be in their own group or there is space in the main church area for young children to sit and play. We share communion (Bread and wine) each month and all are welcome to share at the table, young or old, frequent sharers or with us for the first time.

SACRED on the first and third Thursday monings of each month in the Peninsula Prayer Space offers something very different for adults with a mix of quiet, creative and thinking times.

THE JOURNEY has re started and is our reflective worship on the second Sunday evening of each month. We meet at St Mark's at 7pm for coffee and then shre in times of worship inspired by The Iona Community. This is  time in which we area ble to meet together for refreshment and then reflect together including times of quiet. Click on the worship tabs for more information.

Our services are open to everyone and we are made up of a diverse group. Our hope is to welcome individuals, households and families of all shapes and sizes. I am available at most of our services but if you happen to miss me please leave a message at my office (020)8853 0563 or send me an e mail via the contact us page and I'll get back to you as soon as I am able.

My best wishes to you

Martyn
