Christ Church

General information

At Christ Church we recognise that we are a group of people of all different ages and backgrounds who share one thing in common. We’re all on a journey…a journey in our relationship with God and with each other.

‘Christ Church is The LOCAL CHURCH in the COMMUNITY of Creekmoor with an ECUMENICAL WELCOME where everyone is welcome’

We have one Ordained Minister who represents the four churches who support us, but we believe that everyone who is part of the church community is THE CHURCH.

We believe that relationships are really important. We try to find lots of lively ways to enjoy being together and we support each other when life gets tough. We love opportunities to welcome others into our COMMUNITY.

At Christ Church we believe in ALL AGES together encountering God to worship.

We love to meet together to WORSHIP God! We worship as a single congregation using the service orders of all four denominations and informal styles of worship.

We LOVE doing things that are weird and wacky…we believe that living life and following Jesus isn’t always serious; it certainly isn’t boring and often is GREAT FUN.

Because we’ve experienced God’s amazing love for us…we want to find ways of sharing it so that others can know it too! We are on a MISSION…

We have 3 acts of worship each week...

Breakfast@9 is great for families and anyone who wants to enjoy breakfast and a fun, full packed, punchy service!

We start at 9am, with breakfast around large long tables (you can choose from bacon butties, croissants, pain au chocolat, and cereals with a choice of hot and cold drinks drinks. (lasts for 15 minutes). Then we clear all the breakfast stuff away and get ready to worship by singing a couple of songs with musical instruments! This is followed by a short prayer and then we invite people to dress up and act out the bible stories (it's great fun). Someone will spend 5 minutes telling us what the bible story meant and then we have a craft activity and make something connected to the story or play a fun game or activity. We then have a short time of prayer which can be done in all different styles and we finish by celebrating people's birthdays and anniversaries by singing 'happy birthday' and they receive our very special 'pot of bubbles!' At the very end we have an action song, taken from youtube, and we have a collection towards the work of the church and a prayer of blessing. This service ends at 10am on the dot so you can carry on your day with plenty of time to spare.

Then it's turnaround time! All the tables are popped away and the chairs arranged in rows all ready for our 10.30am Encounter service.

Encounter starts at 10.30am and is a reflective style of worship. Everything is displayed on our large projector screen and we have large printed service sheets available for those who struggle to read the screen. We also have a loop system for those who are hard of hearing. Encounter lasts for about 1 and 1/4 hours - 1 and 1/2 hours.

The service begins with welcoming everyone and then we sing 3 worship songs. This is followed by a couple of prayers. We then have 2 bible readings and a talk lasting around 10-20 minutes explaining about the reading and what it means. There will then be prayers of intercession (praying for our world and other people) and depending on the service, we will have Holy Communion (taking bread and wine - or receiving a blessing) or a time of ministry (playing a song and praying over people). A collection will be taken during the final hymn/song and a final prayer of blessing will be prayed.

People are welcome to stay for a good quality cup of coffee or tea and some cake afterwards and its a great opportunity to chat and get to know others. We love having visitors and new people joining us and you are so welcome!

Once again it's turnaround time to prepare for our 7pm evening service!

Engage starts at 6.45pm for drinks and a chat and the main service begins at 7pm.

This is a cafe style service which is very 'chilled' and a great opportunity to get close to God! There are hot drinks and snacks at the tables to the side which you can visit anytime during the service. There are round tables with chairs around and rugs and bean bags/cushions at the back (if you fancy really chilling out). We have low lighting and candles on tables and a very relaxed atmosphere. Some parents come to Breakfast@9 and then come back to 'Engage' to receive time for themselves.

The service starts with a welcome and a long block of worship (usually 5 songs) which is great for receiving God into your hearts, this is followed by a bible reading (this can be a long one!) and then someone will talk about the reading which usually lasts around 15 - 20 minutes. There may be discussions during the talk or after on your tables (or mats and beanbags). There will then be a time of intercessory prayer (praying for our world and other people) and some time of prayer for ourselves. Sometimes there is Holy Communion (receiving bread and wine or a blessing)in which case the worship will be spread out with less songs at the beginning, but a couple during Holy Communion. A collection will be taken towards the work of the church and there is a chance for people to pray for each other at the end.

Then its turnaround time again, when the tables, rugs and beanbags are popped away and the chairs lined up in a long row for Holy Communion on Monday morning!

We are always on the move at Christ Church Creekmoor as you can see! But God is also on the move with us too! You are so welcome to join us at any or all of our services. We are one big family who love to grow and make disciples in every way we can.

Please feel free to pop in and try us out!

God Bless,

From everyone at

Christ Church Creekmoor

For people who are visiting us from afar!

We have ample parking near the church (on the gravel car park just pass the church on the left) and also in the large shopping car park to the right ... 2 minutes walk away).

We are situated next to the Birchwood Medical Centre and are opposite 'The Acorn pub'. There are other small shops, Library, Youth Centre, Chemist and Community Centre near to us too. There is no school in Creekmoor, so we are the heart of the community and offer lots of activities to all ages. We are in the midst of raising money to expand our church as far as we can outwards and upwards in order to provide a Community Hub that will be suitable for everyone in Creekmoor.

It's very exciting here at Christ Church Creekmoor!
