At B1 we enjoy worshipping in a variety of styles. You’ll find all sorts of influences. That’s deliberate, because we believe in drawing on the best of the old and new as we seek to be creative in the way we respond to God. We try and ground our worship so that it’s an expression of our culture. For too many people church is disconnected from their normal cultural experience. If you try us out, you may find yourself listening to ambient, dance or rock music, as well as classical or sacred. Video and visual imagery augment spoken communication. Discussion might take place after talks. There’s sharing of story and symbolic prayer. At times we try and build choice into our services. Across the month we’re sometimes experimental, sometimes reflective and sacramental, and at other times more celebratory. The children have their own separate groups which they really enjoy.
Our services are at 11.00am in meeting rooms at the Hippodrome Theatre two sundays a month. For the first Sunday of each month, we have a simple service around a community meal in 3 Temple Row West. Tea and coffee is served beforehand. We don’t meet the third Sunday of each month, because we believe it’s important to create space for family and friends.
