A very warm welcome! 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When
We meet at the St James' Church building (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 11:00am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up.

Our Service
The main service begins at 11am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of readings and hymns, culminating in the Holy Eucharist (where we share bread and wine).

We typically have two or three hymns, with bible readings and sections of liturgy (set prayers). One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. We then finish with a final hymn. The service lasts for approximately an hour.

What about my Children?
At St James, we have a children's Sunday group called "Treasure Seekers", It is a friendly & welcoming group run by DBS checked volunteers. Treasure Seekers covers lots of different activities, providing the children an opportunity to learn about God, Jesus and the church in a fun environment. Activities include:

  • Bible Stories
  • Testimonies
  • Praying
  • Music
  • Arts & Crafts
  • Drama
  • Fun & Games

Treasure seekers take place next door to church in Wick & Marcross Village Hall, please drop your children off at the hall 5-10 minutes before the main service starts at 11am, you are welcome to stay with your child if you wish. Each session runs for 30 mins before the children are brought into church to join with the main service and take part in communion (bread and wine (wine is optional)).

Treasure Seekers runs once a month alternating between St James' and Monknash. Please refer to the calendar for confirmation of when Treasure Seekers will run.

There is a dedicated Treasure Seekers page here.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet in 12 different church buildings across the Vale of Glamorgan - here's the list.

There are no rules when it comes to choosing which church to visit. Some people attend the church that's closest to where they live, others choose one that's important to them. Whichever you visit, you can be sure of a warm welcome.

Accessibility: Most of our church buildings have wheelchair access. Gileston is our only building that has only steps for access. Audio induction loops are available in most church buildings.

Toilets are available in our buildings in Llantwit Major, Southerndown and Ewenny.

Our Service

The main service begins at 10am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our band. We typically have 2 or 3 songs lasting approximately 20 minutes. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. Sometimes people share things that they believe God is saying to the whole church family. This might seem strange the first time you hear it but it’s all part of our connecting with God. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. We then finish with a final worship song. Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.
