Church Life
SUNDAYS
Join us every Sunday at 11:00am for worship and an inspiring message. You are welcome to come early for a drink in our Cafe before the service. Alternatively, you can watch the service online via YouTube.
Kids Church takes place during the service for those aged 3-11. Upon arrival, our team will be there to meet you in the foyer as you will need to register your children before the start of the service. Kids Church operates on a first-come-first-served basis as we are limited on the number of children we can accommodate.
For those with younger children, you can utilise our Suite if you wish to supervise your children outside of the service. You can watch the service via a video link whilst your children play with a selection of toys.
If you are coming for the first time you can visit our First Visit page, and we’ll do our best to look out for you. We look forward to seeing you and making you feel at home! If you have any questions on the day, you can visit our Connect Point or speak to one of our Host Team.
SMALL GROUPS
We have a fantastic network of small groups meeting across the area. Our small groups take place on the second and fourth weeks of each month, running on Mondays or Tuesdays and are a great way to get connected with people and encourage one another. We also have specific small groups for our young adults (18-30s).
Small Groups usually include a time of prayer, discussion and often follow a video-based curriculum with plenty of discussion questions to get your teeth into.
If you would like to express interest in joining a small group, you can sign up here.
MEN AND LADIES
We run various events and activities throughout the year for both men and women including prayer, breakfasts, socials and input evenings specifically designed to encourage, inspire and build relationships. These events are a great opportunity to invite friends to!
You can find out more about the latest events by visiting our Men’s or Ladies pages.
YOUNG ADULTS [18-30]
We run various events and activities specifically for young adults aged between 18 and 30. These include small groups, input nights and social events. Breathe YA also run hangout events after the service on the last Sunday of each month.
Here in Stoke, we have two great universities in Staffordshire and Keele and we love to welcome students while they are here to study, as well as when they graduate into young adulthood.

YOUTH [11-17]
Whether you’re in secondary school, at college, in sixth form or have just started an apprenticeship then Youth is for you. We have a great team who are passionate about God and about young people.
On the 2nd and 4th Fridays of each month (excluding school holidays), we run Awaken from 7:00pm until 8:30pm. Awaken consists of games, activities and usually includes a short, inspiring message.
We also run Grow Nights on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month (excluding school holidays) from 7:00pm until 8:30pm. Grow Nights are a great opportunity to learn about God and discuss life, faith and God!

If you have children with you, we run a Stay and Play with a selection of age appropriate toys for young children and babies to enjoy.
You do not need to book in to attend the event and there is no charge; however, we’d encourage you to purchase food and drink from the cafe.
