Osbourne Court Sunday Service
Osbourne Court is the modern residential care home that sits right next door to the St Michael’s Centre on North Road in Stoke Gifford.
Once a month, on a Sunday afternoon, we gather there with residents, their families and carers for a simple act of worship together. Our service includes hymns, testimony, a short talk and some prayers.
We also offer a simple communion service at Osbourne Court on a Thursday morning – usually the second Thursday of the month at 11.00am.
Details of particular dates and times will be made available to residents in the care home.
