Current Activities: Church services; 'A Lighter Look'; Cell groups; Parents & Toddler groups; Dads,Grandads & Toddlers; Youth group (11-14 yrs); Alpha Courses - all detailed below. At Ackworth Community Church you’ll find inclusive worship, relevant teaching and opportunities for prayer. We focus our church life around Small Group Churches (not unlike cell groups) meeting through the week and coming together on Sunday. These small groups are an ideal place to grow together, build strong friendships and reach out to the community around each group. We are a family oriented church and consider children an important part of the church. We are developing a stream of youth work for 11-14 year olds. We welcome those who come with questions about the Christian faith and we run the Alpha course regularly. Services...................................................................... We meet in the Parish Community Centre, Bell Lane, Ackworth every Sunday at: 10.30a.m. For worship, praise and teaching. Families are very welcome and there are facilities to accommodate young children. 6.00pm For a more focussed time of prayer and listening to God, then 1st Sunday of each month at 6.30pm 'A LIGHTER LOOK - 'café church' a less formal, more informative café style of church service - includes a short DVD or PowerPoint presentation. Our next LIGHTER LOOK is to be arranged. It's different! A relaxed atmosphere around the tables that encourages people to chat and discuss the topic of the evening.
