Parish Magazine: The magazine is published bi-monthly and contains articles which seek to express some of the life and faith of our Church and parish. The text of the magazine is available by clicking here.

Hire of our halls and kitchen: We hire our halls and kitchen to various organisations and activities, though we are principally interested in those who seek a regular long-term let. For further information, please contact the church office.

Electoral Roll: This is our list of church members. To join the roll, you need to be either living in the Parish or a regular worshipper, to have been baptised and to be over 16 years of age. Electoral Roll forms may be obtained from the church office.

Visiting: We seek to visit Church members who are in hospital or who are housebound. Please contact the church office if you or someone else would like to receive a visit.

Annual Parochial Church Meeting: This meeting is normally held in March and provides an opportunity for the whole Church family to meet together to give thanks for what God has been doing in the past year and to look forward to the coming year. At this meeting, the parishioners elect the Church Wardens and the members of the Electoral Roll elect representatives to the Parish Parochial Church Council and Deanery Synod.

Church Finances: We do not pass a collection plate along the rows during the services, though there is a collection stand near the main entrance to the church and near the Parish Room entrance to the main church. We seek to rely on regular giving to finance the work of God here.

How to give: There is a leaflet available in the Parish Room entitled ‘Giving’. This leaflet has a pledge form by which you can commit to be regular givers to God, a standing order form and an opportunity to make either regular payments through our envelope scheme, or one-off payments. For further information, please contact our Treasurer.
