Whether
you are considering visiting St. Wilfrid's Church or have already attended,
we want to welcome you and let you know that there is a place for you
at SWC. We hope to answer many of the questions you may have about the
church, worship services and beliefs on this site, but please feel free
to call the church at 01293 771869 if you have any other questions at
all- we'd love to talk with you. What
can I expect at a worship service?
Our purpose in worship services at SWC is to bring glory to God and to study His Word. This is accomplished through the various parts of the service: SERMON: Through a detailed study of a portion of the Bible, we seek to better understand God's character, plan and purpose. Bibles will be available in each pew for those who may not have one with them. All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16 MUSIC: God is praised and worshipped in traditional and contemporary hymns, through both instrumental and vocal music. O come, let us sing for joy to the LORD,Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation. Psalm 95:1 PRAYER: It is our privilege to bring praise, thanksgiving, confession and requests to God in times of prayer. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Phillipians 4:6 OFFERING: We collect an offering to support the work of our church as well as missions work in our country and around the world. This portion of the service is intended only for those who consider SWC their "church home"- guests are not expected to contribute! Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7 What should I wear? You will fit in at SWC whether you are dressed up or prefer a more casual look. You will see a wide range of styles at our services. What is available for my children? A Creche area within the church is provided although parental supervision may be required. Children's Church is offered during the worship service for ages 4 through to teens. Children will be given the opportunity to follow workers to our educational area, for age-appropriate worship and Bible-focused activities. Attendance is optional- feel free to keep your children with you for the entire service if you prefer.
