If you’re new or ‘just looking’, this page is for you

We recognise that if people who come to our church only get connected with Christ, they may or may not stay. But if they come to get connected with Christ and with others here they’ll probably hang around for quite some time.

That’s because we’re all seeking relationship and identity. It’s how God wired us. We’re looking for reality and something that will get us through life.

Sunday Services

The best way to find out more about God through Jesus Christ, and whether we are the right church for you, is to come along to one of our Sunday morning services at 10.30 am in Sudbury Town Hall.

When you arrive you will be greeted by our Welcome Team and shown through to our Café area where fresh coffee and warm doughnuts are served before the service. Our regulars, as well as our pastoral team, will love to ask any questions you may have.

While with us, why not take moment to fill out ‘Keep in touch’ form so we can send you out a welcome pack? It includes a little bit more about who we are as well as a free Vineyard worship CD.

Vision & Values Evenings

We also provide Vision and Values Evenings for newcomers and for people just looking. Hear founding pastors Andrew and Emma Stewart-Darling share their story and vision for Stour Valley Vineyard Church and how you may be part of it. There is also the opportunity to ask them any questions you are burning to ask. And all over a congenial glass of wine and some tasty puddings. Contact the office to put your name down to come. These tend to be once or twice a term.

HOME Groups

If we are really serious about growing up spiritually before growing old, a midweek HOME group is essential for you. It really is the most effective way to get to know people in church and grow closer to Jesus. To find out more, click here .

Outward Focused Life

It has been said that we actually have two holes in us as human beings. One is God-shaped, the other is purpose-shaped. While the God-shaped hole is met through places we can receive such as Sunday services and HOME groups, the hole other is filled by serving others – giving out.

Serving for us means getting involved in Sunday service support teams and other areas like our compassion ministry Storehouse. But it also in takes the form of getting out there and serving our community through acts of random kindness. This is just sheer fun, but be warned, once experienced it’s becomes addictive!

We like to do this in creative and practical ways. It’s part of our mission to see the lost found and the found grown, so we really are intentional about reaching out to those on the outside.

We hope this has page has been of help to you. Remember to sign up to our Free weekly SMS txt service if you want to be kept informed by your mobile.
