St Lukes Watford – a welcoming church

Here’s what you can expect and what you should know

We’re welcoming. People often tell us that we’re good at welcoming visitors and new people. You will be greeted at the door by a member of the welcoming team who will show you into the church and make sure that you have everything you need for worship and that you are comfortable. Inside the church sanctuary you will be offered a notice sheet by the steward and, if required, guided to a seat.

Here’s the YouTube video from our Harvest Sunday morning service – to give you an idea of what happens at St Lukes at our Sunday morning services – there’s no need to book, just turn up, the service starts at 10.30am.
