Here at St Mary's, we're very proud of our grounds and gardens and very grateful of our small group of volunteers who give of their time and talents in maintaining them. Maintenance of the grounds and gardens,, including our memorial garden is an all year round task. We are always grateful and very warmly welcome anyone else who might have a little ( or more time to give) to assist our small group of volunteers on an ad-hoc or more regular basis.The tasks needed to maintain <a></a>the grounds vary from season to season, but include grass mowing, hedge trimming, watering and weeding of the flower beds. If you love the fresh air and are looking to give a little of your time with the satisfaction of helping us keep our grounds beautiful, please do contact us for further details ( office@stmarycuddington.com) with Shaun, Gardening in the subject line. Many thanks
Here at St Mary's we lie within the diocese of Guildford. The vision of the diocese as a whole is to see lives and communities transformed through the love of Christ. Many Churches reach only a small proportion of the Parish populations they seek to serve. We along with others seek to become more effective at passing on the baton of faith, and in particular reaching out to younger generations. As part of the Diocesan strategy of Transforming Church, Transforming Lives' we <a></a>have three areas of particular focus.1. Growing Disciples2. Growing Diversity3. Growing Community.These are areas we seek to grow and develop more and more on an evolving basis in the coming months and years.This is YOUR Church where everyone is welcome and valued, irrespective of background. Gods; love is for each and every one of us

We couldn't resist sharing this beautiful Rose arch arrangement recently constructed by one of our talented flower arrangers on the occasion of the wedding of one of their close family members. Here at St Mary's we are blessed to have people who give of their time and talents in so many ways. EVERYONE without exception is valued in the eyes of God who gives us ALL gifts and talents that we may not realise are within us .We always need and encourage anyone with any time they <a></a>can give, with any gifts and talents, no matter how insignificant they may appear to you..to come forward at any time. Your presence is of course enough, but just maybe those God given gifts and talents may find a home here which will be truly valued.
