Great news – the Fishermen’s Chapel returned to a service every week from September 2023, when Heather was appointed to be our minister. The pattern is now as follows:
First Sunday of the month: Communion service, 9.30am
Our beautiful family service that includes Holy Communion is for all those who like to deepen their faith in a symbolic way that is steeped in history. We spend time: in prayer; listening to the Bible; having a short reflection from our minister; singing hymns modern and traditional; and sharing the Lord’s supper of bread and wine ( non-alcoholic). Everyone is welcome to join us at the table, however if you prefer a just a blessing or to remain seated that is fine too. To share in the sacraments is a transforming act which is so special – it can give great comfort and peace in our restless and challenging world.
Second Sunday of the month: Gospel service with the Fishermen’s Chapel Gospel Choir and the Monday singers, 7.30pm. Doors open from 7 for refreshments.
Third Sunday of the month: Taizé 7.30pm. Our Taizé services are based on the Christian worship practised by the ecumenical Taizé community in France (www.taize.fr). The service involves the repetitive singing of simple harmonised songs, interspersed with readings, prayers and periods of silence.
Fourth Sunday of the month: Mindfulness, 7.30 pm.
Fifth Sunday of the month (when there is one): United service with other Leigh-on-Sea Methodist churches.
