OPALS

"OPALS" is a program of activities especially designed for people who have grown-up families, or perhaps are without a marriage partner. It is a varied and vital program which encourages people to have fellowship and become involved in the life of St Luke's.

Creche

On Sunday mornings a Creche is held in the cottage during the 10.30am Family service, catering for ages 0-2 years. Alternatively, parents may wish to keep their very young child with them in church, or if their child is unsettled, they may take advantage of the sound proofed, glassed "crying room".
