Father's Place

CHURCH LIFE

The starting place for many people is Sunday morning church. You can discover a little bit about our meeting below so you know what to expect. This is a family church which is reflected in the vibrant accessible Sunday morning meeting, a worship centred gathering, prayer ministry, children and youth activities and so much more. Take a look below and please get in touch if there is anything further we can help you with.

MIDWEEK groups

We would encourage you to come and worship in person, however if this is not possible you can watch our Sunday morning meeting live on Facebook at 10:30 am.

Sunday Morning

We start at 10:30 am but you will find a warm welcome from 10.15 am. We are here to make you feel at home, we will show you around. If you have children we will introduce you to the people leading children’s work and ensure you know exactly where they will be meeting.

Our worship of God is central to all we do. We have a vibrant modern style of worship in all our gatherings.

Our amazing worship team is lead by Luke Howson.

We believe that the local church needs to develop its own songs and anthems to reflect what God is doing in the community. In this season we are developing our song writers and are looking forward to releasing their work to the wider church community before too long.

Again, this is a significant part of our time together. Typically lasting 30 – 40 minutes, you will hear Bible teaching combined with practical application delivered from one of our many excellent speakers.

We regularly invite travelling speakers and teachers, many of whom you will have heard of, and so we invite you to keep an eye on our upcoming events page to make sure you make a date with your diary for these not-to-be-missed moments.

You can also find our recent teachings available for free on our Media page.

Listening to how God has impacted lives is one of our favourite ingredients. It is unusual for a week to go by without some kind of testimony being shared by one or other of the church family.

Where possible, we give opportunities for stories, breakthroughs and good news to be shared with the rest of the church family.

This is a highly valued part of our church programme.

Our children’s work cover all ages from 2 – 11 years old with every child being made to feel welcome.

Each week there is a rich and diverse programme of activities for each of the 2 typical age groups within this bracket. They are enriching times for all concerned and are highly recommended.

We run our youth group every Sunday during the month and they cover a range of topical subjects applicable to young people and their journey to maturity. In addition to our Sunday Meetings other activities are organised from time to time for the youth. Before your child can join the Children or Youth Work we will ask you to complete a consent form.

We take the welfare of Children and Vulnerable Adults very seriously. We are signed up to the Christian Safeguarding charity Thirtyone:Eighty (Formally CCPAS) and all of our volunteer leaders are DBS checked and fully trained in safeguarding awareness. A copy of our policy is available and you can read more about it and how to get in touch by clicking here.

We meet at 10 am in the creche room to pray for our morning meeting.

Prayer is available to everyone immediately after our meeting. You will be offered simple prayer for any issue you might want support in. Our prayer volunteers are highly experiences and love to offer this ministry.

For those who might want a bit more time, or to go deeper, we highly recommend booking an appointment with our Bethel Sozo ministry. This ministry is an extraordinary opportunity to really get to grips with many aspects of your life and you can find out more by clicking here.

We also offer pastoral ministry too, and encourage you to get in touch if you want to take advantage of this.

Although we finish our main service at 12 noon there is still plenty of time for fellowship over a drink and biscuit.

We would love to meet you and get to know you so please stay around for a while and take advantage of the relaxed, informal atmosphere and see if you can’t make some new friends.

We always encourage people to bring their own mug as it helps with going greener.  But we do have recylcable paper cups for anyone who forgets.

Church All IN

Our ‘Church All In’ meetings happen monthly. This meeting is not streamed.

As the name suggests it is everyone taking part from welcoming, hosting, sharing testimony, childrens creativity time and the wonderful ‘Faith in Five interviews.  It is a full service with lots of fun.

MIDWEEK

Reach offers a confidential Christian counselling service for anyone in need and has done so for over 30 years. We offer ‘pastoral counselling’ for those who have a Christian faith and ‘community counselling’ for people of any other faith or of no faith. This distinctive approach reflects how we fully respect each person’s values and beliefs. Our hope, and aim, is to help each person find a better life, whatever their starting point may be.

Counselling at Reach provides people with the opportunity to fully explore their concerns and aims in a safe, confidential and hopeful setting. Clients present with a variety of issues that are causing them distress and our Appointments Manager seeks to allocate the most appropriate available counsellor to each new client. We don’t have a fixed charge for counselling sessions, but we do encourage donations and we have a fair donation principle that we ask all clients to consider.

Reach Counselling is available in Wrexham, Chester and various other centres in the NW of England. Further information can be found on the Reach website: ReachUK.co.uk or by ringing 0151 727 2121.

Sunday Meeting 10.30am
New St, Rhosllanerchrugog, Wrexham LL14 1RE
www.heavensway.org.uk

We are a group of people who have experienced the healing and transforming power of Jesus and love to share His love and healing with the people we meet.

Many of the group have come from different spiritual paths but after encountering the power and love of Jesus have decided that there is no competition! His love is purer, more powerful and much more personal than anything encountered before.

We believe in a judgement-free environment where people can come and find healing and transformation. We understand that we need Jesus’ transforming love to make us whole and that we can only find this in His heart and then outworked in community!

There are opportunities to receive prayer for healing, prophecy, dream interpretation and meditation with Jesus.  It is the perfect time to bring along someone for a cuppa and receive so much more!

Acorns’ Preschool Stay and Play with free breakfast
Fridays, during term time 9:15 to 11:00 am
Breakfast served at 10am / Parent participation and supervision

We offer a warm welcome to families in our local community.  There is plenty of room and toys in our main hall to encourage creative play and develop relationships between parents and children. 

Parents have time to chat and get to know their neighbours in a safe, friendly environment. Enjoying one anothers company and connecting helps break down the isolation that is sometimes felt when raising young children. 

We serve a free breakfast in the back room when the children can sit together and enjoy fresh fruit and toast while parents have hot drinks and cake.

Stay and Play is possible because of the support of volunteers. If you are interested in offering your time then please contact Abi Hughes on 07703781838.
