We have finally seen the back of the digger and the fencing and our toilet is in and working - just awaiting a few accessories to be fixed. We will be having a bit of a ribbon-cutting ceremony as this is a major achievement to a church which is over 1000 years old. Due to the many issues we have encountered along the way we continue to fundraise for our kitchen and new access door A list of donors to date will be created and displayed as soon as the ribbon is cut and we thank all for their patience awaiting this historic event.
Our Christmas Carols/Candles and Christingles service is on 10th December starting at 4.00 pm - a service to celebrateWe will continue on Christmas Eve with Midnight Communion starting at 11.00 pm and closing with lighting of the final Advent candleOn Christmas Day we are open from 10.30 to 11.30 as for an hour of quiet reflection
Works to install a much needed toilet within the church itself starts on the 25th September and will enable us to continue and grow within the community and beyond.Fundraising continues in regard to create a small kitchenette and to improve accessPlease be aware when walking/parking nearby that contractors are mobile and parking is somewhat limited
We will be open from 10.00 - 16.00 on Saturday 9th September to cheer on those who manage to reach St James and offer refreshments and a well earned rest before they are off again to complete the last leg of their travels in aid of their local churches.
