Meeting weekly
This is a relaxed space to encounter God and bring your thoughts and questions; a space to belong together and safely explore your identity, and a space to act on our God-given passions and make a positive impact locally and globally.
We explore relevant topics and Christian themes, delving into the Bible and doing creative activities and projects. Socials include movie and games nights as well as trips to the beach, bowling, Dartmoor and beyond!
