Key Events

Our Good Friday events are always a precious time, and we want to extend this to families too! So, on Good Friday we'll be holding an interactive morning that gives families the opportunity to explore the events of Easter together.

Come and join us from 10-11am, where there will be a variety of stations and activities for you and your kids to learn together about the cross and the resurrection. 

The activities will be mostly aimed at children in primary school, but all are welcome. There's no need to sign up - we'd love to see you there!

This Good Friday, join us for a night of worship and reflection.

Over the last few years, our Good Friday event has been a precious, moving evening and a chance to pause to remember Jesus. We'll centre everything around a cross in the middle of the room and focus our worship and attention on the events of that day. The night will finish with us taking communion together

Being part of Grace Church isn't just about turning up on Sundays, it's about being part of a family. That's what our Newcomers meals are for: to help you get to know us as a church and get to meet others like you that are new to Grace Church. To do that, Ben & Emily, our leaders, would love to have you round their house for a meal. It's all very relaxed and just gives you a chance to get to know them and ask any questions you might have. 

All you need to do is register your interest, so that we can make sure we welcome you well and we've got enough food for everyone attending. Pop your name below and we'll get in touch with all the details you need. __

The Bereavement Journey is a 7 week programme designed to help anyone explore and process the loss of someone important to them. Grief is often accompanied by deep sorrow and pain. The separation from someone close to us causes emotional, psychological and physical reactions which can feel overwhelming. Loss needs to be processed for our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Unresolved grief can also affect our attitudes, relationships and attainment

The Bereavement Journey has been designed to validate every person's experience and support them as they learn to live life without the person they love, through a series of films and discussion groups that gently guide people bereaved at any time through the most common aspects of grief and bereavement, enabling them to process the implications for themselves and discern next steps. Topics include: "Attachment, separation and loss", "The impact and pain of bereavement", "Anger and guilt", "Coping with others' reactions", "Adjusting to change", "Delayed and suppressed grief", and "Moving forward healthily". The course provides a great place for talking to others who have been bereaved, or just hear how others are experiencing and dealing with similar issues. Grief is more easily managed when journeying with others and past losses can be opened up safely. The Bereavement Journey has been found valuable to anyone, bereaved at anytime and from walks of life.

Some more general information can be found online at https://www.thebereavementjourney.org/ and questions about our course at Grace Church can be sent to bereavement@gracechurchnottingham.org

So that we can cater well for those wishing to attend the course, it is essential that you sign up in advance - signups will be open from Monday 26 January 2026. There is a £10 charge to cover the cost of materials. However, if this would cause you difficulties in any way, please contact us. Doors will open at 7.15pm for a prompt 7.30pm start each week.
 

Prayer and worship have been at the heart of our journey as a church over many years and we especially want to push into these areas anew this year.

So, once a month we will gather to pursue God's presence together as a church, worship Him and bring our community, our city and our nation before Him. It has been from some of our gathered times that we've heard God speak most clearly about our future as a church.

We'd love for you to be part of this too, so why not come along. __

Once a term we set aside three days as a church to pray and fast together. Prayer & Fasting, which runs from Tuesday to Thursday, has been at the heart of our journey as a church over many years and it's from some of these times that we've heard God speak most clearly about our future as a church. We pray because we know the power it holds and we fast because time and time again in the Bible we see God move as His people fasted.

We run prayer meetings every evening on these days at 7.30pm at the church building.

We'd love you to consider fasting for all or some of these three days. Fasting is deliberately abstaining from the normal routines of life in a way that causes us to depend on God. For some helpful tips on fasting and why we do it please visit graceconnection.co.uk/fasting.

Something special happens when the church gather to pray so we'd love you to be part of it.

Join us on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 7.30pm.
