The first Cafechurch gathering of the new year takes place on Sunday.

Rev John Campbell, of the Woodbank Community Church, will introduce the topic: 'Is the church dying? Dying to do what?'

People are invited to offer their thoughts on what the church is doing – or should be involved with – in their community.

Held at Costa Coffee on King Street, Whitehaven, doors open at 5.30pm for a 6pm start.
