CHURCH ACTIVITIES
Our church community offers various activities that you can join and support. You can participate in walking groups to explore the area while getting some exercise. Prayer groups offer a peaceful setting to deepen your spiritual practice. We also have informal meetings where you can discuss a range of topics with fellow members.
Quiet Space
On the first Tuesday of the month we offer you an opportunity to meet for a quiet space of reflection and prayer. This offers a peaceful environment to deepen our spiritual life together with others in a contemplative, relaxed and friendly setting. All are welcome and each of us has something to contribute. Different people take turns in leading us through varying themes.
Tuesday the 7th of October: “Autumn – sprinkled with gratitude and thankfulness”
Tuesday the 4th of November: “Grief and Compassion - in the season of All Souls and Remembrance
Time 11.00-12.00

Friday Fellowship
Every Friday morning we gather for a short said Eucharist at 10 am followed by simple refreshments. This is a long tradition and very much ongoing.
From Friday the 12th of September we will start a reflection group in connection to the Eucharist. Every Friday between 11 am and 12 noon anyone interested can come and join us for reflective fellowship. As a first theme series we will be exploring life and faith through day to day objects; like doors, mobile phones, vacuum cleaners or curtains as mentioning a few objects.
You are of course welcome to join both the Eucharist and the Friday Fellowship every Friday or whenever you have time for a breather.

Movement and Meditation
Movement and Mediation is a new event coming soon to St Augustine’s to give support for well-being and nourishment for spiritual life. Sessions will be facilitated by Rachel Michael, dance movement therapist and lay pioneer, and will include guided mindfulness meditation, gentle exercise, creative reflection through words and movement, and time to rest.
​
Dates and times to be determined. Contributions are suggested at £5 or £10 per 1 hour session (according to means). Please see the poster for more details.

Cornerstone
Cornerstone is an informal opportunity to meet together in our beautiful church over a cup of tea or coffee, to share experiences and to support each other, maybe through a difficult time.
​
We meet every 2nd Tuesday of the month at 2:30 pm, and warmly invite you to join us.

The Strollers
St Augustine Church Strollers Group welcomes anyone who may enjoy walking and meeting new people. We walk on the last Saturday of each month and have mid-month walks on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. We aim to cover a distance between 4-6 miles and include stops for both coffee and lunch.
​
We have members of differing ages and abilities, all of whom are welcome, as we aim for fellowship combined with mild exercise in pleasant surroundings.
