Thank God It's Thursday (TGI Thursday for short) is a group for mums meeting every week during term time - it's a chance for mums to have a bit of a break. TGI is a great opportunity to meet with others to have some time out from the busyness of every day life. There is a varied programme of activities each term including guest speakers, craft mornings, tasting and lots more. There is always time to relax and have a chat over a cup of tea or coffee.

There's a fully staffed creche - you can leave your children there, or join them in the creche for as much of the session as you want. 

Meets daytime during the week on a Friday morning, providing play and social activities for toddlers and their carers. Contact the church office for more information.

We are planning a trip to Sorted on Saturday 16th November. The event takes place at Westminster Chapel in London starting at 10.30am, finishing at 4.30pm. This is a social event, part of St Patrick’s Church Youth Group (4:Twelve). Sorted is led by Capital Youthworks.

Your child is welcome to join us for a fun day out with Bible teaching from Romans 8 about Jesus and our relationship with Him. Everything needed for the event will be provided but please bring a packed lunch. This is a fantastic opportunity to hang out with friends, whilst learning more about Jesus and the difference He can make in the lives of 14-18 year olds.
 
Travel Arrangements:
We will meet at Wallington train station at 8.50am. From there, shortly after 9am we will travel via train to London Victoria station and make our way to Westminster Chapel. The event finishes at 4.30pm. After the event we will make our way back to Wallington train station aiming to return between 5.30pm – 6pm (depending on train). You will need to arrange for your child to be picked up from Wallington station. Once on the return train we will confirm our ETA.

Our main gathering on a Sunday is this lively and welcoming service, in which we sing songs and hymns, listen to what God is saying to us through the Bible, and pray. It's fine just to come along and see what goes on, or join in as you feel like it (if you've not been in church before and aren't sure what to expect, have a look at our new to church page).

On all but the first Sunday in the month adults and children alike start off together in church, but the children and young people (up to age 14) then go to their own groups after about 15 minutes. There's also a staffed creche running throughout the service, from about 10.15am, for under-3s. You can read more about our childrens' groups.

On the first Sunday each month we have our Family Service (which is a little shorter, about 45 minutes), celebrating the full diversity of our church community by children and adults worshipping together for the whole service. The music and teaching content is intended to be suitable for all, and we expect a bit of noise! The uniformed groups (Scouts, Guides, and so on) also join us for these family services.

On the second Sunday of each month, we also include a celebration of Holy Communion (sharing some bread and wine together as a reminder of Jesus' death), which adds about an extra ten minutes to the service.
