Mental Health Support Group
This is an informal group that aims to provide a safe place for people who are, or have been, struggling with any mental health issues, or support those who do. It is a place to get to know each other and build community together, encouraging one another whilst on the road to recovery. The group meets twice a month at 10:30am, either in the church building or, more infrequently, for coffee in someone's home. We also have more spontaneous opportunities to meet in town for coffee, for anyone who just wants to touch base and catch-up. If you'd like to know upcoming dates and locations, just get in touch. __

This group is hosted in the Welcome Area of our building so is easily accessed through our main Sunday doors, with no steps into the building. Chairs are arranged in a loose circle with plenty of maneuvering space and easy access to a disabled bathroom.

Prayer & Worship Night
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. __

Foundations
We are made to know God and this theology course is designed to help us all grow in that. Covering some of the core teachings of our faith, this five week course aims to help us delight in God and trust his character. We'll look at questions such as 'Why does the Trinity matter?'', 'How does the Trinity shape the Gospel?', 'Can God change?', and 'What does it mean that Jesus is man and God at the same time?'.
There is something for everyone in this course and our hope is that it will fuel our worship of God.
We'd encourage you to book your seat at Foundations by signing up below.

Baptism Sunday
It's Baptism Sunday! We love celebrating what Jesus has done in people's lives and believe that baptism is an important step on our journey living for Jesus. This week at all 3 of our Sunday services, you're invited to come and join the celebration as we hear what God's been doing in people's lives and baptise them. We'll be runing our usual children's programme for ages 0-18 at our morning meetings so if you do have kids you'll be well looked after.
We meet in the city centre so we're only a few minutes walk from the train and bus stations as well as being close to lots of parking. Visit us this weekend, we would love to say hello.

Pursuit Conference
Pursuit Conference is a day conference for Young Adults across our Grace Connection churches here in the UK.
At the heart of Pursuit Conference is a desire to chase after God with everything we've got and spurring one another on as we run this race together. We'll gather young adults from across five cities – Nottingham, Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle and Leicester – to encounter Jesus and be shaped by Him. We believe there's so much in store for us when we fix our eyes on Him.
This year we're thrilled that Liam Thatcher will be joining us for the day. Liam is a pastor, preacher, writer and occasional stand-up comedian who lives in Oxford having recently moved from London where he was the Teaching Pastor at Christ Church London. You can check him out and read some of his recent writing on his website.
Registration is open so make sure you sign up to book your place - you won't want to miss it!

Month of Prayer
When we make space to seek the Lord, he never wastes a moment.
Prayer has always been a high priority for us as a church, and we've found such value in beginning the year with a Month of Prayer over the past few years, so will be doing so again as we welcome in 2026.
We'll be holding various events over the month, including some whole-church prayer & worship gatherings, so make sure you check back regularly to see what's going on. We also have a booklet to help us find a weekly rhythm to help us pray - you can pick up a copy each Sunday through January.

Parking is available either in the Bluecoat College car park located on Castle Road or in the Irish Centre pub car park on Wilford Street, and we're close to plenty of other on-street parking places too.

Good Friday
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

The Bereavement Journey
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.
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
Sign Ups will open nearer the time.

Prayer & Fasting
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.
