Our next service
Our next Teatime Church Service takes place at the church from 4pm until 5.15pm on Sunday 7th December and it will be all about the JOY of Christmas. The great joy of Christmas, of course, is the good news of Jesus’ birth as Emmanuel (God With Us).
This service will have the focus of stars: decorating hanging stars, following the church star trail, decorating star biscuits (all ingredients will be listed), digging for stars and creating JOY posters and star lights. There will also be Nativity craft and star-based songs accompanied by live music… and remembering the special star that led the wise men to the new baby Jesus and the great joy that came with his arrival.
All of our Christmas events for children and families are listed in December’s Teatime Church Newsletter, including details of our Advent Star Trail.
January’s Teatime Church takes place on Sunday 11th January 2026 and it will be all about Epiphany.

What Is Teatime Church?
Our Teatime Church Service is a fun, friendly and informal gathering aimed at young families. We meet once a month from 4pm to 5.15pm at the back of Holy Trinity Church. Families are welcome to join us for as long as they wish.
There are plenty of fun craft and play activities for children (for the first 30 minutes of the service), a dedicated baby and toddler corner, child-friendly worship songs, games, LEGO and a short presentation/story and time for a short reflection/action prayer followed by a yummy supper for the children and hot drinks and cakes for the adults. There is plenty of opportunity for children to move around and make some noise, enjoying the beautiful church surroundings while learning about God’s love for them all.
Teatime Church is a service that the whole family can enjoy together and is a wonderful place of fellowship, friendship, fun and faith. It’s a great way to meet other local families and learn a bit more about God and the church. If you’re interested in coming along, please email me, Georgie, for more details at familyworker@westbury-parish-church.org.uk or just turn up!
