OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD (SHOEBOXES) will be going ahead this year Last year nearly 12 million boxes were filled and sent to many countries. This is just a little bit of a nudge if you wanted to take part this year, to start collecting items such as stationary, soap, small toys, knitted items, balls, games, small clothing items, knitted toys or to get knitting or sewing pencil cases, tote bags No sweets or toothpaste. More details next month. Thank you, Jane Furlow  07745046921

We are seeking to make the church a place to drop into for solace and space during the week.  You are welcome to come in and look around at the historical features of the building, some dating from Saxon times.  We have historic information to read, and photographs of the church interior to view.  There is an area where children can come and read some books, a space to light a candle and leave a prayer request. There are books on how to pray.  There is also a book stall where people can bring books and buy books for a small charge or donation.
