WEEKEND AWAY(9-11 July)
Every 2nd year SREC decamps from its premises and spends a weekend together as a church learning from God's word and getting to know each other better. This year we are doing this over the weekend of 9-11 July. We will be going to Brailes village hall on the 10/11 July and will have our worship and breaking of bread service at 11:15am on Sunday.
There will be NO evening service in SREC on 11th July.
HOME GROUPS
During the week Home Groups are held in homes in Banbury and Warwickshire. Contact us for more details.
"WOMEN ALIVE!"
"Women Alive" is for women of all ages. Outings, lunches, or perhaps just enjoying a coffee together, a wide range of activities are organised. All welcome. Contact us for more details.
Southam Road Toddlers
If you have a child or children aged from 0 to 5, then do come and join us at Toddlers which meets every Friday morning during term-time, from 10.00 am to 11.30 am. We are a friendly group of mainly mums, but dads, grandparents and carers are welcome to join us too.
We have a large play area for toddlers and a lovely range of toys. There is also a quiet, soft-mat area for babies in the lounge. Each week, there are table top activities – Playdoh, Lego, books, and puzzles – and a craft. This can include painting (with aprons provided!), collage, colouring and making simple items. We also have a music session for the children about every six weeks.
There is a microwave in the kitchen for mums who need to heat up bottles, and a baby-changing facility in the ladies’ toilet.
Tea, coffee, and biscuits are provided for adults and the children have a drinks’ break with squash and biscuits. As we are a church-based group we have a Pause for Thought – a five minute slot to provoke thought – on the first Friday of every month. This can involve anything from a verse from the Bible, a short talk, a magazine article or music. However, whatever the format, it always involves eating home-made cakes.
Other activities include a Christmas Party and a Summer Outing.
Entrance to Toddlers is via the back door which leads off from the car park. Mums are asked to ‘sign in’ so we know who is in the church for fire safety reasons. There is a voluntary donation of £1 per family group.
Where are we?
You will find us at: 1 Cope Road, Banbury, Oxfordshire, OX16 2EJ.
The church is situated on the corner of Cope Road, and Southam Road, the main road leading north out of Banbury centre towards the town of Southam. (map)
