We are currently looking for a new vicar to lead our churches forward. Our parishes have worked together to produce a profile document which introduces the Rural Daneside Churches, and you will be able to see all the relevant documents here, on the Diocese of Chester vacancies page. In the meantime, we are working to ensure that we have our usual programme of services across the church group. Please go to an individual church's Services and Events page to check.
Vindline Construction of Knutsford have been instructed by the Parochial Church Council to replace the gutters of St Peter's Church as they are leaking badly and were highlighted as a job to be done urgently in the quinquennial report. As the church is a listed building, certain conditions have tp be met to ensure listed status and that is why the work will cost so much. The work should be complete by 1st October. If you would like to contribute to the cost, please see Geoff, Church Warden and Treasurer, contact him by email geoffleech@uwclub.net or phone 07831 808532. You can also make online donations to the church using the QR code at the header of the article. If you are a UK tax payer, the church can receive an extra 25% of your donation at no cost to you. Please would you complete the attached form and return to the church or to Geoff. The name of the charity is Swettenham PCC. The total cost will be £11,390. Thank you.
