What is the 5pm?

 
 

A new gathering, starting October 4th

What if church was a place where you could simply come as you are, ask honest questions, explore faith, and discover what Christianity has to say to your life today?

5PM is a new one-hour service created for exactly that.

Whether you are curious about faith, exploring Christianity for the first time, or looking to deepen your relationship with God, 5PM is an open space for everyone. Come and worship, ask questions, meet people, and discover faith in the middle of a vibrant, intergenerational and intercultural community.

“What can christianity bring to my life today?”

That’s the question at the heart of our time together.

The service is informal and relaxed — think less traditional church, more massive living room. Expect worship, accessible teaching, meaningful conversations, and a community where you can feel at home. If you're a young adult, there is a special place for you through The Gathering.
If you’re French-speaking, French Connect is here for you too.

And because everyone should be able to fully participate, live translation is available through an app during the service, with languages including French, Farsi, and more.

And you don't need to have everything figured out before you come. You are welcome exactly as you are.

 

The Overflow

The Overflow is our community time, happening every Sunday right after the service. It's designed to foster connection, community, and discipleship — a space to keep going deeper together, not just for an hour on a Sunday.

Each month follows a simple rhythm, offering something for everyone, no matter your stage of life or where you're at in your journey. Whether you're brand new or you've been here for years, there's a place for you to belong and to grow.

The Overflow is completely free, there's no need to sign up — just stay after the 5pm service and join in. Take a look at what`s coming up below

  • Join us every first Sunday of the month, right after the service, for some café time. Enjoy free lattes, coffee, matcha, and pastries while you hang out and get to know each other.

    Grab a warm pastry and settle in for a chat, whether that's digging into the last point from the sermon or catching up on the latest episode of your favorite series.

  • Every second Sunday of the month, we come together for Check-In Sunday, a dedicated time to pause, connect, and support one another. We break into small groups where we can check in on each other honestly and openly.

    This is a safe space to share joys, sit with pain, navigate difficult moments, and ask the questions that are on our hearts - all guided by trained facilitators who help hold space for our small groups.

    Come as you are. We're building this community together, one conversation at a time.

  • Join us every third Sunday of the month, after the service, for pub night. Bring your mates and head down to our local pub with us for some community time together over a pint.

  • Every fourth Sunday, we welcome a guest preacher at our 5pm service to explore the Bible a little deeper together.

    Afterward, coffee in one hand and Bible in the other, we break into small groups to keep exploring the Bible together.

    Whether you've been a Christian for years, you're exploring faith, or you've never opened a Bible in your life ; you're welcome here. No question is too small or too big.

  • On months with a fifth Sunday, we take a break from our regular overflow programming. Nothing formal is planned for that night - it's simply a time to rest.

    That said, the space isn't empty. Refreshments will still be available, and you're so welcome to stay, linger, and connect with others.
