OPEN DOORS - OPEN HEARTS - OPEN MINDS
You will see that St Augustine's is a beautiful church. It is also in a beautiful location on top of One Tree Hill. We gather here to worship God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. As we celebrate Holy Communion together we draw close to God as we share in the bread and the wine and through this we become spiritually nourished. We also draw close to God through study of the Bible so that we may deepen our faith and our understanding of God and so that our faith may find true expression in how we live our lives.
Wednesday 29th March 7.00pm ‘The Way of the Cross’ a pilgrimage with Jesus as he moves from his trial to being laid in the tomb. This will be followed by a Eucharist.

The Parish Giving Scheme [PGS] has been set up and offers the following advantages: if you sign up for it you will be setting up a direct debit that will direct all the money you decide to give to St Augustine’s and, if you consent, can automatically collect gift aid if you are a UK tax payer. It is also possible to index-link your regular giving so that it will rise with inflation. If you wish, you can join the scheme anonymously. Please go to the PARISH GIVING SCHEME page for more details.
