Messy Church
 |
Welcome! We have a thriving Messy Church at Sheldon Road Church. We meet together every 2nd Sunday of the month from 4 - 6 pm, for a fun, activity-packed time of worship with God.
For the 2025 Winter-Spring season we have an exciting programme to cover this period up until Easter - see below.
We also have a number of Messy Church videos available, from when we met online - scroll down to view them.

About Messy Church
Not sure what Messy Church is? Messy Church is a place to experience church for all ages who may, or may not, have any experience of a traditional Sunday church service. Messy Church welcomes and provides for everyone. It includes a relaxed welcome zone where people gather with refreshments for a chance to connect with each other. After a greeting and explanation, a storyteller retells a Bible story, then everyone is invited to take part in various crafts, activities, and games - all related to the story. A short interactive celebration time of song, prayer, and reflection follows the activity time. Finally, we share a meal all together.
We'd love for all the family to attend, please make sure that children are accompanied by a grown up.
If you would like to know more, you can find anything you need to know by accessing the Messy Church website. Also, whilst we love having you join us in our own Messy Church worship, there are plenty of other activities that you can do at home. Visit the Messy Church organisation website for ideas.
