Junior worship and fellowship

Junior Church takes place every Sunday morning and is open to all ages. Young people and children take part in the beginning of morning worship and then join in age-related groups for a variety of activities.

Families with babies and pre-school children are welcome to sit anywhere in the sanctuary, or in the safe area at the back of the church, so that everyone can participate in worship. Soft play bags are available for the very young.

Fun for Under Fives (FfUFs) runs every Monday morning in term-time for pre-school children and accompanying adults. The session includes play, craft activities, story time, songs and a prayer.

Messy Church is normally held on the first Monday of school holidays except Bank Holidays. All ages are welcome, accompanied by an adult.

Welcome to our church

We hope that you will find much to interest you here and will want to join with us as Christians in Fareham. Our church mission statement is "Sharing Jesus' love with the world today". This means we, all ages, come together each week for Sunday worship to listen for God's word for us. The rest of the week we try our best to act on what we have heard both in church and through our own prayers. We try to care for each other to the very best, and this love and care then flows out through all of us in our work, leisure and home lives. Wherever you are as regards faith in God, come among us and help us together, to grow closer to him day by day.

You may or may not be aware that there are now daily reflections, written by all kinds of contributors, made available by the United Reformed Church as emails. You can subscribe here to receive them. You can also find them on our website or on Facebook.

Stitch in time!

We have a new outreach initiative! On Thursdays in term time from 3.30 to 4.30pm a small group will be available to carry out minor sewing repairs at the church - such as sewing on a button, restitching a drooping hem, repairing a split seam etc. While the owners of the items wait they can have a drink and a biscuit!

You are invited to Pancake Fun!

On Shrove Tuesday, 17th February, drop in any time between 5 and 7pm.

Bring your friends and family and enjoy some tasty pancakes and have a go at some of our pancake related activities.

Donations will go to the church charities - MHA and MSF.

Our prayers this month

Every week pray for our Church Officers, Elders, all who lead worship, those who provide and show the PowerPoint and work the camera and microphones, those who provide music during times of worship, those who prepare the flowers and those who provide welcome and hospitality.

Prayer for Growth: God of Mission, who alone brings growth to your church, send your Holy Spirit to give vision to our planning, wisdom to our actions, joy to our worship and power to our witness. Help our church to grow in numbers and in spiritual commitment to you and in service to our local community. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

1st - 7th February

To ponder: And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8, NIV)

Give thanks that we now have a minister designate and pray for him and the church he will be leaving.
Listen to the News headlines and share your concerns with God in prayer.
Loving God, hear the yearnings of our hearts that we may walk humbly with you, sharing love wherever we go.

8th - 14th February

To ponder: Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: here am I. (Isaiah 56:8-9a, NIV)

Give thanks that we are never alone, that wherever we go, God is with us.
Pray for those who are unwell, grieving or lonely.
Loving God, you will never abandon us: may we walk in your way of love.

15th - 21st February

To ponder: He received honour and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. (2 Peter 1:17, NIV)

Give thanks for each kind act that is done for you this week.
Pray for Messy Church (16th) – for all the families that will come and share fellowship and all those who help.
Loving God, may we receive all that you are longing to give.

22nd - 28th February

To ponder: Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. (1 Corinthians 1:26-27, NIV)

Give thanks for signs of God’s love all around us, in family and friends, in the beauty of creation.
Pray for a fresh vision for our church, that we might have imagination, creativity and wisdom to face future challenges.
Loving God, help us to understand your teachings that we may obey them.
