Eco Group Lifestyle Survey

Posted on by Laura Thomas

Eco Group Lifestyle Survey

We have made an Environmental Commitment as a church and are currently working towards the Silver Eco Church Award, having gained the Bronze award in 2022.  To support our Environmental Commitment, the Eco Group is conducting a lifestyle survey. This survey aims to understand how we care for creation, find the best ways to share environmental information, and gather suggestions on how we can all reduce our environmental impact.

Our sustainable transport survey in 2022 had 125 responses; we would love to equal or exceed that amount!

We hope you will participate in this survey, which will close in July. The survey is also available in paper form if you cannot complete the online form.

Tech Training in Church

Posted on by Laura Thomas

Church Tech Training – Get Involved!

The historic Church is now open again following its recent refurbishment, and it has been fitted with an exciting range of brand-new technology. The updated setup includes a new visual mixer and audio desk, bringing the Church’s production systems much more in line with those in the Auditorium.

To help our teams get familiar with the new equipment, Chris Smith will be running a Church Tech Training Session from 7:00–9:00pm on Thursday, 9 July, in the Church.

Whether you’re already part of a production team or would like to learn, this is a great opportunity to develop new skills. With the Church and Auditorium now operating in very similar ways, we’re hoping to equip more people to serve confidently in either venue.

If audio is your passion, you’ll especially enjoy experiencing the Church’s wonderful natural acoustics, which make mixing worship a real pleasure.

If you’d like to attend the training session, please sign up on the link below
