Pathfinders is the perfect way to use your Sunday morning! Every week is a chance to catch up with mates as we gather round the Bible, chat it through in small groups and see what God is saying about our lives today.
Here's how it works:
- Come to the 10.30am service at church. The place to sit is the balcony above the main door - you'll see the rest of us up there.
- After 15mins or so we'll head across to 3 Osborne Road for Pathfinders, which will kick off at about 10.45am.
- We'll then wrap up in time for the end of the service and will bring you back across to find your parents.
