Sunday

SoulFuel - A Spiritual Open mic is a monthly gathering for poets, storytellers, and songwriters held at Essex Hall as part of the Heartspaces programme. It's an evening of sharing to feed your soul. Each month, we create a space for people to share their creativity, so each Soul Fuel is unique. Bring a poem, song or story to share or just come and enjoy what others have to offer. Featuring guest musicians and gentle spoken work, this event is not to be missed! Heartspaces at Essex Hall is a vibrant and welcoming Unitarian hub in central London, open to spiritual seekers, existing Unitarians and curious newcomers. The Heartspaces programme is a series of weekly spiritual gatherings led by Unitarian ministers and volunteers across London. From regular pagan ceremonies to the spirituality events every Thursday evening, Heartspaces encourages people to gather, share and discover together. Whether you are a seasoned Unitarian, a spiritual searcher or simply curious, find your space to grow.

**Dads, Assemble! 👔☕ Father’s Day Service — Sunday 21st June, 10am** **Let’s be honest: most of what dads get on Father’s Day is a tie nobody asked for, a card with a fishing pun, and the quiet hope that someone else will make the tea. This year, we’d love for you to get something a bit more lasting instead — an hour of good company, honest conversation, and a reminder that you’re not in this whole “fatherhood” thing alone.** **Who are we?** **We’re the London International Christian Church — part of a global movement that’s been quietly (and sometimes not-so-quietly) trying to do church the way it was done in the first century: small, close-knit, every person actually known and actually involved, not just a name on a pew. No stained-glass intimidation, no Latin, no dress code stricter than “please wear trousers.” Just people trying to follow Jesus together and actually meaning it.** **This Father’s Day, we’re doing something for the dads — whether you’ve got toddlers attached to your leg, teenagers who communicate exclusively in sighs, grown kids who now drive better than you, or you’re still figuring out what kind of dad you want to be. Come as you are. Bring the family. Bring the skeptical brother-in-law. Bring nothing but yourself if that’s easier.** **We’ll talk honestly about fatherhood — the pressure, the pride, the bits nobody puts on a greetings card — and look at what it means in light of a God who calls Himself “Father” first.** **The details:** **• 🗓️ Sunday 21st June, 10:00am** **• 📍 Porchester Hall, Porchester Centre, Queensway, London W2 5HS** **• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 All families welcome — kids, grandparents, the lot** **• 👕 Come comfortable, no dress code** **• ☕ Tea and coffee after (the good biscuits, not the broken ones)** **No pressure, no pulpit-thumping, no passing the hat round twice. Just a warm room, real people, and a chance to celebrate the dads in our lives properly — even if all they really wanted was a lie-in.** **See you Sunday. Bring your family, bring your dad jokes — we can’t promise ours will be better, but we’ll definitely try.**
