Church Graveyard Update

 

Our gardener and his helpers are doing a great job at keeping the graveyard and grounds looking smart. All sections have had their first cut of the year.

 

We thank you for your patience and understanding over the past few months.

 

Few churches have a paid gardener these days, so we are grateful to receive donations towards the upkeep of the grounds.

 

If the grave of your loved one becomes overgrow, please let us know, and we will tell the gardener.

Graves that have been fenced around by the family obviously cannot be mown by our gardener, and the same applies to graves that have ornaments or decorations on the top of the grave space. In these cases it is up to the family to maintain it.

All grave ornaments/decorations are left at your own risk.

 

If you have any questions or queries about the graveyard, please get in touch.

Coronation Celebration!

We thoroughly enjoyed watching the Coronation of King Charles lll together in church recently. Watching on the big screen, we followed along with our service sheets and shared a lovely buffet lunch.

Jubilee Joy!

We had a lovely time watching the Jubilee celebrations together. We gathered in the church and watched the service on the big screen and enjoyed some delicious scones with jam and cream! 

The Church community is still struggling with the long term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.One of the challenges we face is the loss of earnings as donations, fees and hall rental income have fallen considerably. If you are able to support the work of our Churches and make a donation we would be very grateful. 

Donations can be made online using the button below, or through the team office. Thank you for your help.
