The Point
What's the point?
Ever Asked yourself "What's the point?" Well there's a new youth event
starting in our neighbourhood that should help you find some answers.
Working together with St. Saviour's, Iford Baptist and St. Christopher's churches,
'The Point' is an evening of worship, teaching and creative ministry for 13-18 yr olds.
It's an opportunity to meet together with other young people from the area, share stories
of our faith and worship God.
The first night is Thursday March 13th at St. Christopher's Church, and it'll
take place every other month from 7:30pm to about 9pm. As The Point develops,
there'll be opportunity for local church youth groups to take part in the form of
drama, dance, new media, music etc. The first evening will look at Jesus' resurrection
and what makes it so special for us as Christians today.

Church Music
At St Christopher's we worship using a very wide range of traditional
and modern music. A small choir leads our worship regularly in the
morning and we are also building a team of instrumentalists who play at
the major festivals such as Christmas a, Easter and Pentecost. Later
this year we are beginning some youth orientated café services where
the music and presentation will be much more contemporary.
