These beautiful cards made by the Junior Church children will soon be on their way to members of our church family who are no longer able to attend church. I’m sure they will bring a lot of joy.

Welcome to Messy Loaves and Fishes! We are busy preparing to share this lovely story with you in our next Messy Church happening on Sunday 25th October at 3pm in Church. Children particularly enjoy this story as it shows us how Jesus valued everyone including the smallest and the youngest of his followers. So, we will be exploring how small actions can make BIG things happen. There will be paint and mess, fun and games and a shared meal to finish things off. It would be great if you could join us and helpful if you could let us know if you can by emailing

Coming up this Sunday, St Leonard's Youth Club!
If you’ve not heard of us before, we are a very friendly, welcoming (and slightly crazy) group of folk all aged between 8 and 14 (apart from us leaders) who meet up in St Leonard’s church hall around 6-8 times per year for 2 hours of fun, games, sports, chat, and the now-world-famous tuck shop. It's all very relaxed, just a chance for them to be themselves (and away from screens!)
We would love to see new faces as well as welcoming those who have been before.
There is no charge for the session, but your young person can bring along 20p - £1 for the tuck shop if they would like.
Please email [email protected] to let us know you are coming or if you have any questions. We look forward to welcoming you!
