St. Mary's has long had the idea of providing better facilities at the church. In 2024, we are launching 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 churchWe already have a significant sum of money from the sale of our former church hall however we still need to raise £67,000 to complete this work. We are having a Gift Day on Easter Sunday 31 March and holding various fundraising initiatives starting with a pie supper and quiz evening on Saturday 13 April at 7 pm. Tickets are available priced £12.50 from the church office at mailto: stmarysofficesankey@gmail.com or by ringing 07719 171191.We have also appointed a fundraiser to help with applications for grants from charities, the public sector and companies.If you would like to donate to the appeal, please contact the church office as to how you can do this.Thankyou
