Coffee mornings
This winter as a church we, like everyone else, are working out how best to offer you all a truly warm welcome. Our regular coffee mornings will be shared between the Church and the Tithe Barn. Both venues will have the same smiling faces and we look forward to welcoming friends old and new of all ages. The revised times and locations are:
Mondays 12pm - 2 pm Tithe Barn
Tuesdays 10am - 12pm St Mary's Church
Wednesdays 10am - 12pm Tithe Barn
Fridays 10am - 12pm Tithe Barn

This provides an outreach and the opportunity for people to socialise. When sessions are at church there is also the chance to seek spiritual solace or advice within the privacy of the Memorial Chapel or elsewhere within the church. Coffees/ teas with a biscuit are £1.50 per mug/cup.
