Activities for All
Once a month we are holding special services at Nine Locks Community Centre at 10:30am in place of our normal Sunday Service.
Deeper is our monthly evening get together when we pray, share the bible and worship in a relax way. We meet at the scout hut below the Nine Locks Community Centre. We beleive in the power of prayer and worship (in song) is a way of expressng our heart to God and drawing close to him. In all these things it is our desire that we would be drawn deeper in our personal and corparate lives with Christ.

At Lakeside Church we don’t see Sundays as the only day we can go to church. We believe the church is the people who are part of the family of God and therefore whenever we meet together in the name of Christ we are His church.
Sunday is still special to us, as it was special to the early church and has been down the ages. The church met on a Sunday to separate themselves from the Jews, who met on the Sabbath (Saturday). Sunday to them was a working day. Today we still meet on a Sunday as it still a time when the majority of people are available.
The believers first met on the "Lord's Day", a Sunday, to break bread, pray, fellowship and share in the apostles’ teaching. These are still the principles and practices of our church today.
We gather to worship and praise, through music and song, through prayer and the teaching of God’s Word. Generally we follow a teaching series, but we break from that to keep to the basic Christian calendar of Christmas and Easter.
After the formal part of the service, we have an informal time of fellowship over a cup of tea and a doughnut.
