Hope Explored is an informal and relaxed 3 week course, for anyone wanting to find hope, peace and purpose in life, but particularly for anyone exploring faith and perhaps not sure yet what they believe.

It's completely free, and light refreshments will be provided. You don’t need to know anything about the Bible, and you won’t be asked to pray or sing. You can ask any question you like, or you can just sit and listen.
