John 21:1,9&12 - Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples,?by the Sea of Galilee […] When they landed, they saw a fire?of burning coals there with fish on it,?and some bread.[…] Jesus said to them,?“Come and have breakfast.” 

Fun and friendship by the sea

 

Throughout August we are inviting the community to come together for a time to relax, play, make new friends or just unwind on the beach!

So whether you are alone and looking for some company or part of a group, you are welcome to join in. There will be organised beach games and activities to enjoy or you can just chill out with a coffee and make new friends.

Where:
On the Whitley Bay beach, near to the Rendezvous cafe. Look out for the banner!

When: Tuesday to Saturday, throughout August, for approx 2-3 hours, during low tide. To give you an idea of when we aim to be on the beach, below is a chart of preferred times and tide information. We can't always predict the weather so adverse conditions may lead to cancellation.

All ages are welcome, but children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet in the school hall and community room of Whitley Lodge First School (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 10:30am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits at the end of the service. It is a great way to meet people. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will assist you if required. There is a disabled toilet.

Our Service

The service begins at 10:30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our band. We typically have 2 or 3 songs. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. At some point someone will share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. Someone will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. There is always an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.

What about my kids?

Children stay with their parent or grown-up at the start of the service for the welcome, songs and notices. We really value worshipping God all together as a family. At the appropriate time someone will announce that it’s time for the younger members to go to their group.

The kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, craft, fun games and free play.

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out Small Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
