The Luncheon Club
We are a family orientated group of elderly folk who meet on a Wednesday from 10am- 2pm in the back hall. Activities include scrabble, dominoes, quizzes, various games and discussions depending on the needs and wishes of the group. We celebrate most festivals and national occasions. We also support the Essex and Herts Air Ambulance. A hot lunch is provided.
We are very fortunate that we have always had and still have a group that work well together and look after each other. It is very important that they participate in all decisions we make which is why it works so well.

Ladies wot Lunch
‘Ladies wot Lunch’ is a group that meets on three or four occasions during the year to enjoy convivial conversation and a nice pub lunch, or on occasion, an Afternoon Tea. Dates are fluid, normally mid-week, and will be advertised through the church.
Strollers
Country walks of approximately 4 – 5 miles are organised by members of the church on a monthly basis. These take place in a variety of places around Hertfordshire and usually end with a pub lunch. Once a year, a ‘Historic London Walk’ is organised in June.
Music Group
We play to accompany hymns during the morning service, usually on the third Sunday of the month. Currently we have piano, guitar, ukulele, harmonica, cello and occasionally a cornet. The singing group leads the singing of the hymns as the music group play. We rehearse at 9.30 am on the mornings that we play in church.
Flower Guild
Is a group of dedicated ladies who use their skill to arrange fresh flowers for the church weekly.
The flowers are donated by a person or family in memory of a loved one, and arranged by members of the Flower Guild.
They always put on a wonderful display, particularly for the Harvest Festival Service, Easter and Christmas.
