The Avenue Church on 29th November at 3pmThe play tells the true story of John Newton, the writer of the famous hymn.
A man of no morals and a trader of slaves, Newton had turned his back on God until a stormy night at sea transformed his way of thinking.
The age guidance for this performance is 12 years plus (no upper age-limit!).
Some quotes about the play:
‘excellent, excellent, excellent, what a performance and what a message. Very inspirational’
‘The play was so crisp and relevant to our men, who all struggle to turn their lives around’ – prison chaplain
‘Your production really spoke to me, I thoroughly enjoyed it’

Denbury Folk
Over the last 2-3 years, we have been putting on folk concerts to make use of the amazing acoustics in our church (single aisle, barrel roof).
We call them "Sunday Afternoon Folk", and they are a collaboration between Denbury Folk group and the PCC. We have a talent spotter who knows the business and has brought us some remarkable musicians and singers. And we have a loyal and growing group of regular attendees, who have come to appreciate the standard of musicianship on offer, the warm welcome and the interval cake! The word is spreading amongst the artists too. Our final concert of 2025 features Sean Lakeman and Kathryn Roberts
- a considerable coup for a small venue - who are coming on the recommendation of Sean's Dad!
