If you could ask God just one question, what would it be?

Why am I here? What's the point of life? Who is Jesus?

 

To be a Pilgrim – a course for the Christian journey explores the basics of Christian faith and gives people from all walks of life an opportunity to question the meaning of life and faith in an informal, warm and friendly environment.  All are welcome – whether you are a regular worshipper, if you have never been to church before … or if you simply want to explore faith questions you have never really understood or felt able to ask!

 

We begin each of the 6 weekly meetings by sharing a meal together at 7.00pm, followed by a talk and lively discussion in small groups.

 

Book the Date:

Our first meeting begins on Thursday, 28th September 2017 at 7.00pm and then on 5th, 19th, 26th October, 9th & 17th November. The venues are listed below.
