Church Family Groups

Women’s Fellowship

The Women’s Fellowship meets each Monday afternoon at the church and has a varied programme including guest speakers, social activities and outings.

MIDIS

This ladies’ group meets on Tuesday evenings twice a month at the home of one of the members. The meeting is usually based round a talk or an activity in which all can take part. Husbands are welcome on special occasions.

Badminton Club

This group meets each Tuesday evening in the church hall for a few social games. It’s a good way to blow away the cobwebs and forget some of the problems of ‘normal’ life.

Mother and Toddler Club

On Friday mornings, there is an opportunity for mothers with pre-school children to meet each other in the church hall.

Prayer and Praise Breakfast

This group meets on alternate Saturdays at 8:30 am in the kitchen at Dale Street and start by sharing breakfast together .. cereals, coffee, croissants, fruit loaf, a wide variety of spreads and fresh fruit. Much reflecting and reporting about current experiences occurs - in fact so much that the toast frequently gets burnt. Currently there is a rota enabling everyone to lead if they wish. Each meeting has a different theme. Hymns old and new are sung, and faith is discussed in an informal way. Many people find it an oasis of calm at the end of a busy week and at the start of what might be a hectic weekend.

House Groups

Youth Organisations

Operating as Dale Street Scout and Guide Group, thriving uniformed organisations are available for young people across the whole age range. They take part in all the activities associated with the Scout and Guide movement and produce their spectacular gang show ‘Daley Sketches’ every two years. Explorers will be found as young leaders in several of the junior sections.

Linked Organisations

Age Concern

Age Concern Leamington Spa run Lunch Clubs on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in the hall at Dale Street. Volunteer drivers fetch and return members in a minibus and hot meals, coffee and tea are served. Members are occasionally entertained by groups of children from local schools.

NCH

Dale Street members are heavily involved with fund-raising events for this charity which helps parents and children. The autumn coffee morning with music and ‘Carols by Candlelight’ are long-established annual events.

Christian Aid

The house-to-house collections and the Mayor’s Charity Walk in May are both well supported by Dale Street.

Leamington Lifeline Alarm Trust

This local charity installs and maintains telephone alarm systems for old or disabled people in the neighbourhood. Each person is visited regularly by a volunteer who checks that the equipment is working properly. The officials and many of the volunteers are members of Dale Street church.
