SJC COMMUNITIES

A community for families. Reaching out and supporting those with kids, both pre-school and school-aged.

We have 2 small groups within our community.

One which is for ladies – it runs fortnightly on a Wednesday at 7.30pm in our houses.

Our second group runs weekly on a Wednesday at 8pm in the leaders (Dan and Lucie Lovell) house which is in Wivenhoe.

A group of working women, who meet fortnightly on Tuesday evenings, exploring faith through creativity, sharing lives, joining with God’s purposes, and supporting each other through prayer and practical help.

We are a mixed age group who, through weekly bible study and prayer, create a supportive place of sanctuary.

We meet in people’s homes or via Zoom (mixture of the two).

Weekly on a Wednesday evening starting at 8pm – 10pm.

A group of guys from church who live busy lives, and take time out to meet socially, sometimes in a pub, or for a meal, to discuss life and build relationships around our Christian faith.

We are a community for young adults. We meet to share our lives together as we gather socially, around the Bible and pray for each other.
