Weekend Away at Sunnyside

We are all disappointed that we have had to postpone our weekend away at High Leigh again. It will now take place 30th September - 2nd October 2022 (please note corrected dates!). As this is a long time away, the exciting news is that we are going to hold a weekend away at Sunnyside Saturday 17th - Sunday 18th July 2021. More details to follow after Easter but do put these dates in your diaries! 

The PCC met on Monday evening. The main item on the agenda was approving the Annual Report which is an important document that details what we did in 2020 and includes the accounts for the year. The PCC also agreed how we would hold a one off financial appeal in late April; to some exciting initiatives to serve our community; and to us having a weekend away at home. More information about all these things will come soon! 

At the Annual Meeting in April, we will be electing four new members of the PCC. If you would like to consider standing, please speak to Rebecca. There is more information about what is involved in the link below

Due to current lockdown restrictions we are not meeting on Wednesday mornings but encourage you to pray for our roads from home or as part of your daily exercise.

For more information please email Charis Geoghegan 

The office is closed for the holidays and will re-open on Monday 12th April 2021.
