We believe that gathering as the church should be expressed 'from house to house' and 'in the temple courts'... i.e in homes and all together on Sundays. Each setting provides something different for followers of Jesus and each is vital as we grow together.
🏡 In Homes
We have a real passion for sharing our lives with one another; being open and honest about the things we struggle with and standing alongside each other when life gets tough! We meet in homes throughout the week and it’s a great setting to eat together, pray together and encourage one another.
🎉 On Sundays
We get together as a church family on Sunday mornings at Meadowdale Primary School. When we meet up we keep things simple – we’ll usually sing songs and worship Jesus together, and will spend plenty of time catching up and enjoying being together. Sometimes there will be a message to hear from someone, sometimes we’ll get the kids involved and sometimes we’ll pray for one another!

FAQs
Some of the most common questions about Living Rock Church are here. If there's a question that you don't see an answer to, hit the contact button below and we'll get back to you as soon as possible!
The Bible teaches us that the Church is for everyone, no matter our upbringing, history, past mistakes or opinions of who God is. The Church is for all nationalities, all ages, men, women, nurses, teachers, politicians, home-schoolers, students, retirees, dog-lovers… whoever you are, Church is for you!
Nope. We regularly have people visit us who are skeptical about Christianity and about Jesus, but are interested to find out more about what we believe. If you’ve ever had questions about life, faith, Jesus or Church then we’d love to meet you!
Sunday Celebrations usually last for 1-1.5 hours, but we always leave plenty of time before and after so that people can chat and catch up.
Potentially…! We sing together, we read the Bible together, we pray for each other, sometimes people ‘speak in tongues’ and raise their hands in the air during worship… it might seem weird at first, but these are all things that happen naturally when the Church gets together and are often our human responses to the amazing things that Jesus is doing in our lives.
Most Sundays we run HotRock – different groups for children of different ages that are designed to help them understand Jesus for themselves. Your children will feel right at home in our kids classes & creche, where they enjoy stories, games, crafts, and more! All of our volunteers are DBS checked and are passionate to make every child’s experience fun and exciting!
Whatever you feel comfortable in. We’re not a church that has a special dress code.
There is ample FREE parking when you arrive and we'll often have an amazing team of volunteers ready to welcome you and direct you as you pull up. Pop the venue into Google Maps and you'll find us!
A life group is a small group of friends who meet up on a regular basis to eat together, support one another and share life together. Groups are usually made up of 6-12 people and they primarily meet in homes across the region.
We encourage life groups to meet most weeks, but we know that life can sometimes be chaotic and busy! Many of our groups find times to meet together that work around family life, work life and social lives.
There are a wide range of life groups at Living Rock. Some are location-based, some are interest-based and some are formed around people in a similar life-stage to each other. Naturally, each group will look a little different but we encourage all groups to focus on several things no matter what/where it is: eating together, discipling one another and serving their local community.
We get it – joining a brand new group of people for the first time can be really intimidating! There’s no pressure to dive in head-first right from the beginning. We trust that over time strong relationships and friendships will form with others in the group and you’ll find a safe place where you can encourage others and be encouraged yourself.
