Messy Church at SCC

What is Messy Church?

An opportunity for all the family to explore the Christian faith together, through craft, stories and songs.

Messy Church is a time when families come together to enjoy being together, making things together, eating together and celebrating God together through his word.

When is Messy Church and How much Does It Cost?

Messy Church is free, and we meet on the first Monday of most school holidays (except if it is a Bank Holiday).

We are now meeting at 11:15am at Sompting UR Church, Cokeham Road, BN15 0AE.

We hope to see you there!

A typical session looks like this:

11:15am Doors open. People arrive, say ‘hello’ to friends, enjoy our craft activities and have a drink and biscuit

Story and action songs
Lunch

1pm Finish
