For some time now, the churches of our parish (St Francis' and St Clare's) have been working with Emmanuel Church, Stoughton, towards forming a new, larger parish. It is important to us that everyone has the opportunity to be heard in shaping the future of our parish community.
A Draft Pastoral Scheme of the required legal changes has been published by the Guildford Diocesan Mission and Pastoral Committee, and the formal consultation is now in progress. The legal notice and draft scheme are below.
Any comments for or against any or all details of this scheme, including the reasons for those views, must be received by midnight on 23 June 2025. The Church Commissioners would prefer such communications by email to [email protected] wherever possible.
