🙂 The Pastoral Care team
🙂 The Church Services team
🙂 The Social & Community team Engagement Team

🔥☺️ Let's cover the cost of our heating together!
100 of us giving £10 a month will do it!!
We now know that it will cost about £1000 a month to run our under floor heating- which sounds a lot but is SO VERY worth it! It is a brilliant resource. That little extra warmth we have enjoyed over the past few months has really made a difference - in services and during the week. We have enabled more to come into church during the winter and to feel comfortable. We have also been able to provide a warm space to many in the community at a time when bills are so expensive.
This is all part of our aim to be as welcoming as possible and to enable as many people as possible to share this very special space.
Could you offer £10 a month to help? 100 people signing up will cover the cost! There is a sign up sheet at the back of church or you can let me know at vicar@stmarys.org

Almighty God,
whose blessed apostles Peter and Paul
glorified you in their death as in their life:
grant that your Church,
inspired by their teaching and example,
and made one by your Spirit,
may ever stand firm upon the one foundation,
Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
Peter and Paul, Apostles
