We are a diverse group consisting of about 20members with average weekly attendance of about 8-10 people. All the members attend, but cannot necessarily come each week although we make a point of praying for everyone each week and encourage email communication of prayer needs.
We meet in Matfield most weeks, but every few weeks we meet in Tunbridge Wells so that some who find it hard to get to Matfield can attend. The meetings are usually led by John and/or Sarah but from time to time others take on this responsibility.
We meet to be with each other and with God and spend the evening worshiping, sharing, praying and studying the Bible. We take the Sunday sermon as our theme and seek to apply this teaching to our lives.
Two or three times a year we have a social evening which revolves around eating together. In the summer we have a BBQ and whenever the weather allows we try to meet outside in our lovely garden.
