Summer Connect replaces our usual Connect groups during the summer break. They are a great opportunity to meet others in the church family.

When was the last time you really thought about eternity? When the normal Connect groups pause for the summer, members of all our groups will be joining together. This year we're thinking about the crucial and exciting topic of how eternity impacts our everyday lives, with the help of Paul David Tripp. For a taster click here.

Summer Connect will be at 7.30 for 7.45pm at the Burgess Road Library. Coffee and cake will be provided. There will be a brief video, a bit of discussion and close with prayer. It should be a lovely chance to learn together, to meet with others in the church family, and welcome people who will be joining Christ Church over the summer. Join us!

28 July, 11 August, 18 August, 25 August.

Christ Church is all about community. But there's only so far you can go with building a community at a Sunday gathering. So we encourage everyone to be part of a small group. 

Each Midweek Connect group provides a context for caring for others and being cared for, encouraging and being encouraged, praying for others and being prayed for. But the 'main course' is the time for studying the Bible together and so being changed into the people God wants us to be.

They meet in people's homes and/or online, around the city and beyond, on various midweek evenings. Interested in joining one? Contact Orlando.

Women Connect is a community of women who meet up in small groups on Wednesday mornings during term time for Bible study, prayer and mutual encouragement.

A creche is normally provided (not operating at present) so that mothers looking after children are able to spend undistracted time with one another for just one hour of the week. But it's not just for Mums; women of every age, stage and household type are invited to join one of the Women Connect groups.

Groups are currently meeting in homes around Southampton (limited to six people present) and online (via Zoom) each Wednesday morning during school term time.

If you'd like to find out about Women Connect, do get in touch with Libby.

Rooted is our Sunday morning group for young people aged 11-14s.

This programme involves getting stuck into a part of the Bible - hot chocolate with marshmallows in hand - and praying for each other as a group.

Rooted meets during the 11.15am gathering each Sunday in term time, so does not run during August. There are other fun social events organised from time to time. 

In the Spring, Rooted have their weekend away to enjoy a good bit of time together and to listen to God's Word.

Internationals are invited to join us to study the Bible, to learn and discuss more about the Christian faith and to gain an understanding of the impact of Christianity to the British culture and society. 

The group is both for Christians who want to grow in their faith, and for those who are not Christians but want to explore Christianity and have questions they would like to ask. 

We meet at Cantell School at 12.30pm every Sunday (excluding uni vacations). Whether you've just arrived in the UK or you've been here for a few years already we'd love to meet you!

For more details, contact James.

Here at Christ Church, we're a family, and we do our best to look out for each other. But we know that it can still sometimes be hard to know who to talk to.

The Care Team seek to ensure that those in need of practical support, encouragement or prayer get it.

If you have a practical or pastoral need in the short or longer term, and don't have someone you already feel comfortable with to discuss it, then please get in touch with the Care Team.
