At the start of 2026 we are having a think about who we are as St. Mary's Church, Wheatley.
There is so much that happens here to make us who we are and enable us to do what we do!!
Together we are building a picture so that all parts may be acknowledged and valued.
Which parts are you involved in?
Are there any parts that you feel drawn to find out more about or help with?
Is there anything here that might need to change?
Have you noticed anything that is not on here that you think could be?
