Sunday Service
ON THE BARGE at 11.00 am
In the service, we listen to what God has to say to us as the Bible is read and explained, and praise him as we sing Christian hymns and songs, led by a group of musicians. At the end of the meeting, time permitting, there is an open forum offering the chance to ask questions or make comments related to the theme from the Bible for that service.
If you miss the service, the sermon (audio to the website, and video to YouTube) will be uploaded in the days following.
More information on the teaching programme next term can be found in the termcard (May – Aug 2026). Other church updates are also published in our Facebook group– St Peter’s Barge.
Growth Groups
Growth Groups provide an opportunity for Christians who are part of the Barge Sunday Church to study the Bible, pray, and get to know others in a smaller group. They offer a level of support, encouragement, friendship, and accountability that is hard to achieve in the larger gathering of the main Sunday meeting. Growth Groups include a special focus on prayer once a month.
- – Wednesday Groups meet weekly from 7.30–9pm.
- – Sunday Groups meet fortnightly after the service.
All Growth Groups are now on summer break and will restart in September.
SUMMER READING & WATCH PARTIES: Feel free to pick one or join both!
- – Instead of our usual summer fellowship, this year we’re suggesting people choose a book from our three recommended titles (Big God, The Secular Creed, Can Science explain everything), read it and then meet up with friends in the congregation to discuss it together. It’s a great way to go deeper with God this summer. Pick up your copy at the Welcome Table or order one online.
- – The other option is to join the watch parties over 6 weeks spanning Wed 22nd Jul – Wed 26th Aug. You can join as many or as few sessions as you’d like! “Did God kill Jesus?” is one of the questions posed on American Gospel: Christ Crucified. Contact the Barge office if you are interested.
