Lets talk about Sundays...
|
When & where do you meet?
We host a worship service every Sunday morning at Fulston Manor Secondary School (ME10 4EG). We meet in the Millennium Hall which is visible from the free on-site car park and is a very short 30-second walk (see site-map for location). We encourage people to arrive from 9:50am to have opportunity to meet one another, get settled and to give us opportunity to meet & welcome any visitors and first-timers. We aim to start our morning together with worship at 10am and aim to finish the service by approx. 11:30am. Drinks are served in the lobby area once the service has finished. Drinks can be enjoyed in the lobby or in Millennium Hall. We aim to be off the school site by 12pm. Free on-site parking There is a free on-site car park, the entrance is accessed via the Brenchley Road roundabout that meets with Bluebell Drive (opposite the entrance to Eden Village). It has a large sign reading 'CAR PARK C'. The car park is a short 30-second walk to the Millennium Hall block. What should I expect? We usually have a combination of sung worship, prayer & Spirit-filled contributions, shared communion and exploring a biblical theme or topic through inspirational teaching/preaching. We have additional social time after the morning service for making new friends and meeting old ones in a fun environment over a hot or cold drink (and sometimes tasty cake!). We currently have approx. 35+ people of all ages gathering with us most weeks. It’s a fairly relational and casual environment with a family feel. What about children? We think of our Sunday mornings as an extension of our shared family life together... we love having young and old together throughout, worshipping Jesus together. We don't have specific provision for children's work, all parents/carers/guardians are encouraged to remain directly responsible for any young people with them. Several of the Hope Church Sittingbourne family have young children through to older teenagers & young adults. Accessibility Fulston Manor has great access & washroom facilities are available for those with mobility issues. All the facilities are located in the lobby area right by the entrance. Giving / Tithing As a church we encourage one another to have faith to give joyfully, consistently, proportionally and generously in-line with the Bibles teaching. Giving can be done in a number of ways, such as in-person on Sundays, via direct standing order with your bank, or online. More info can be found on our GIVING page. Please note:

How else might I get involved?
We believe that mission is best when done with friends, so meaningful relationships are a huge priority for us.

Engage with HOPE HOUSEHOLDS...
We believe that the church is a family of people on a mission, and far more than just a Sunday gathering. The church we see in the New Testament is a community that observably loves Jesus, and one another, and gives itself to making the Good News of Jesus the King (and His Kingdom) known to others in practical ways. With this in mind we meet fortnightly together in HOPE HOUSEHOLDS across Sittingbourne. |
