Description

A calm, gentle Christian ministry for anyone who needs somewhere quiet to belong. No pressure, no performance, no need to have it all together. The structure is basically a short biblical story, a wondering question, a walk, then close with a blessing.

Church lite and outside in sensory friendly spaces led by a pioneer minister who is neurodivergent.

If there is already a small group going out you can join that one – we cap numbers at roughly 12-15.
