After nearly 10 years of ministry here, I am looking forward to a new challenge in Liverpool, and would like to thank all within the team and at St.Mary's who have supported me, and my family, over the years".
St. Mary's has long had the idea of providing better facilities at the church. In March 2024, we launched our appeal to:- Demolish the existing linkway between the church and its family room- Build a new linkway to include 2 new toilets, a new kitchen and new entrances at both the front and the rear of the building- We will also be insulating the family room and putting in a dividing screen which will allow 2 separate meetings to take place at the same time (available for both church and community use)- Raising the level of the linkway and the family room to the same level as the churchBy June 2024, we had raised the £67,000 we needed to start this work from our church members, members of the local community through our fundraising activities, and grants from various organisations.If you would like to donate to the appeal, please click https://givealittle.co/c/6rzUpDEtIFE6XC3Iju322GThankyou
