Worship with us

Worship is a key part of our church life …

We are all different and all connect with God in ways that are as unique as we are.

Worship at Brighouse Central celebrates this diversity with a variety of services, in various styles, both in person and online, so there is something for everyone.

Sunday morning worship (10.30am)

Every Sunday morning, we gather together for intergenerational worship at 10:30am.
All are welcome.
Worship is led by ministers, local preachers, visiting preachers and the occasional local arrangement when members of the congregation lead worship. Information about who is leading worship can be found on the Sunday Service page preaching plan.

We are incredibly blessed to have both a worship band and choir who regularly take part in the Services. Junior Church runs every Sunday morning for children of all ages.
After the service, all are welcome to stay for refreshments and fellowship.

Junior Church

Our children start the morning in the service then usually leave for their own activities led by our amazing Junior church team. Activities include games, crafts, stories, drama, and the occasional snack or food related activity!
The children are then collected from their session at the end of the service unless it’s a communion service, when the children rejoin the service to receive communion with the rest of the church family.
All children are very welcome – we love to see wiggles and giggles in church.

Communion

Communion services are usually the second Sunday of the month and form part of our regular Sunday morning worship. All are welcome to take communion.
Gluten free bread and non-alcoholic communion wine in an individual cup is served at the communion rail. (it can be brought to your seat)
If you do not wish to receive communion, that is fine too, just remain in your seat or come to the rail and ask for a blessing.
Home (also known as extended) communion is available on request. Please contact the Minister or Lay Pastor for more information.
