Getting Involved
Helping out

 

 

We rely on volunteers to help us keep the churches running smoothly, here are some of the things you could get involved in:

IN CHURCH

  • Cleaning – our church buildings are cleaned weekly and the brasses polished regularly. If you are a whiz with the polish or a hoover, we’d love to add you to the rota
  • Flower arranging – we have a skilled florist at St Stephen’s but she can’t do it all the time, so if you are willing to be artistic with flowers, please let us know
  • Sides-duty on a Sunday – we have a regular group of people who help to set up the churches for the Sunday services, as well as welcoming people, giving out service books, gathering the collection and helping to clear up.
  • Assisting with Kids Church – working with children is extremely important as well as rewarding. All those who work with our children are required to agree to work within the Diocesan policy, Safe From Harm.

OUT IN THE COMMUNITY

  • Pastoral visiting – supporting those who are too ill or frail to attend church is a crucial part of our ministry, offering God’s love and encouragement to those who would otherwise feel marginalised
  • Briar Close Team – helping to run the monthly service at the local residential home. From giving out books, to finding hymn numbers, to holding hands and listening to worries, this ministry is valued by those who give and receive it.
