Table Top Sale 28th September Thank you to all who helped at the table top sale: we raised over £300 toward the running of the church.
Planting the trees and the raised beds: donations of herbs needed, please
We (the Environment team) are going to plant three trees in the church grounds: the Pre-school remembrance tree (a silver birch) by the car park, a bird cherry by the bench and a rowan near the path to the bungalow. These will be planted in October, when the weather is a bit cooler and wetter, so that they won’t need so much watering. In addition, we have decided to plant herbs, strawberries and bulbs in the two raised beds – again, these will be planted in October. We would appreciate donations of bulbs (daffodils, crocuses, irises etc) and herbs, specifically thyme, marjoram, oregano, rosemary, mint or parsley. Please bring to church and give them to any member of the Environment team: Debbie Brent, Allan and Sue Scrivenor, Cathy and Phil Hemsley, or leave in the foyer under the notice boards. Thanks in advance.
Our Vision
We desire to be a vibrant and inclusive Christian community, inspired by God, to worship and reach out to nurture, heal and serve. Worship: to make our lives ones of worship, both corporately and individually. Reach Out: to reach out. Archbishop Justin said, ‘The church is not a rest home for the saints but a lifeboat for the world’ Nurture: to accept where people, the community and our world are at present, and to encourage growth and development in a loving and supportive way. Heal: to heal the damage done to our environment, to heal difficult relationships, to pray for physical, emotional and mental healing, to heal struggling relationships with God. Serve: to serve by both practical action and prayer. Serving not only what God has given us (the world and all it contains) but also God himself; by proclaiming His word, making new disciples and loving one another as He loves us
Our Values
We believe that all should be welcome, encouraged and supported. We believe that faith should be developed within the Church and shared in our wider community. We believe that we should show tolerance, understanding and compassionate support to each other We believe that we should work as a team, supporting each other so that we can better serve others. We believe in a God-centred life based on the precepts of the Bible and upheld by prayer. We believe that worship should be God-centred, accessible, joyful, stimulating and relevant.
