Here's what's on the horizon of 2023
Every Sunday
Sunday services
For connection and encounter
📍 Every Sunday, we gather for connection, worship and to hear the word at Diego’s Joint.
☕ Doors will open at 10am for the chance grab a brew from the coffee bar before the service starts at 10:30am.
🎸 It’s going to be a lot of fun gathering in this space with “living room” style worship, encouragements from the Bible and time and space for group discussion and prayer.
🎨 We will have an activity corner for all our C3 Kids who’ll be exploring a series called Diary of a Disciple.
🍴 Right after the service, Diego’s will open as a cafe so if you’d like to extend the family hangs, sticking around for lunch will definitely be on the table.
🤩 See you there!
🏠 28 Norfolk Street, Sunniside, SR1 1EE.

Vision Month
Every year as a church, we take the month of May to dig into our vision: for Christ, for people and for our city.
Each Sunday we’ll be zooming in on what this looks like in the year ahead. We’ll hear stories and updates from the life of our church and unite in faith and heart for all God wants to do in us and through us.
We’ll then take up our annual Vision Builders offering on Sunday 28th May.
Why not check out the details for last year’s offering in the meantime?
