In 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?
Nomination forms for the PCC can be found at the back of church- we have one vacancy- come and join us! We also have two vacancies for Deanery Synod representatives- a great change to be involved at a broader level and to help to make really important decisions that affect us here in Wheatley!
To find out more do get in touch with Faith: secretary@stmaryswheatley.org

Almighty Father,
who in your great mercy gladdened the disciples
with the sight of the risen Lord:
give us such knowledge of his presence with us,
that we may be strengthened and sustained by his risen life
and serve you continually in righteousness and truth;
through 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.

For April we support...
Shelter Box
"ShelterBox exists to ensure no one is without shelter after disaster. We often work in places that others don’t, making sure that we reach families who need support to take the next step in resuming their livelihoods. By providing emergency shelter and tools for families robbed of their homes by disaster, we’re transforming despair into hope."
