Spiritual Programme
Every week at Le Pas Opton you’ll find quality Bible-teaching with popular speakers from Spring Harvest and other Christian organisations.
Bible study and celebration
Our optional morning Bible study gives you an opportunity to grab a coffee and croissant and enjoy the teaching on offer. The topics are always light and thought-provoking. With the kids' clubs running concurrently with the Bible studies you can sit back and relax with the peace of mind that our team of childrens workers are looking after your little ones. Then, later in the day, evening celebrations are a great place to join with your family and your new friends for a short time of worship, testimonies and short talks.
On Sunday morning the week culminates in a family celebration, with kids presenting a drama, song or testimony from their groups. The whole service is family-focused, with all-age worship, prayer and preaching.
