No gardening expertise required - just enthusiasm! Come along and muck in for a couple of hours.
Midweek Holy Communion is on Wednesday at 11.30am, followed by a light lunch.
Are you caring for a baby or toddler on a Thursday morning and would you like friendship, a cup of tea and somewhere for your child to play? We also provide a craft activity, a story and songs. If so, please come and try Oasis in St Mary’s Church from 10am – 11.30am on Thursdays. We will be looking out for you and you will be made welcome.
Starting on 8 February at 4.30pm, Connect is a new monthly youth evening during term time, held on the second Sunday of each month. It’s a relaxed space for young people to grow, build friendships, and explore faith together.
Dates for the rest of the term are: 8 Feb, 8 March, 10 May, 14 June and 12 July.
Expect games, music, snacks and more for young people in year 5 and upwards.
You may have noticed that the lights outside the church are still up. This is quite intentional, and they will stay in place until Candlemas (2 February). In the darker part of the year, they offer a welcome sense of light and continue to symbolise the light of Jesus revealed in the Epiphany season.
Thank you to Peter Sait for the wonderful photo.
