Where & When
We are currently running a trial of a new pattern of worship services:
One Sunday a month - on Zoom
One Sunday a month - we go to Christ Church together
The remaining Sundays - we meet at the Woodley C of E Primary School on Hurricane Way.
There may be some variation in this, so please refer to our Good News or the notice board outside the School for up-to-date information.
All services start at 10:30am and run for about an hour.
To join us:
on Zoom - use Meeting ID: 858 5089 4783 and Password: WAC123
at Christ Church - the address is Arundel Road, Woodley, and they are at the junction of Arundel Road and Crockhamwell Road.
In person - we are in the school on Hurricane Way near the junction with Comet Way.
SatNav users please note: the postcode does not bring you to the school building! This
Map shows exactly where we are.
Our Sunday morning worship is informal and friendly and usually lasts between 60 and 75 minutes after which there is an
opportunity to talk.

Worship style
We are very aware that many people feel uncomfortable in churches because they are not sure when to stand or sit and which books they need to follow the service. If that
sounds like your experience of church then relax ... the Airfield Church isn't like that at all!
We know that you need to know what is going on to get the most out of worship - so we aim to tell people if we'd like them to stand or sit, and what is coming next and
we don't assume you know the words of the Lord's prayer off by heart (they are printed in the back of the songbook). And if you should happen to get the words wrong no-one will mind; probably no-one will even notice!
Meeting in a school means we don't have an organ - our worship music is led usually by recorded backing tracks. Many of the
songs we use are fairly modern: follow the link to access a list of the songs we have
backing tracks for.
Let the children come
We welcome children in our worship - even the noisy ones! Please be assured that a child making a noise in church is far more annoying to his or her own parents than to anyone else. We
don't mind a bit of noise - what is important is that you, and they, are able to feel like part of the family and to be able to enjoy worshipping God with us.
Every day
We believe that every day should be part of our worship of God, and that our lifestyle should reflect our commitment to him. As part of this full-time commitment
several of us pray together each weekday morning and we are registered as a
FairTrade church, and
affiliated with
Prospects who support people with learning difficulties. We also rejoice in the opportunity
to support worship in the school and to show the love of God to the staff and pupils in many other ways too.
