We offer a range of activities and support for the senior members of the parish.
Thursday Morning Service
Thursday Morning Service
Thursday services take place in the church at 10.30am and are followed by coffee and a chat in the Selwyn Room. Transport is provided for those needing it, and many say that this quiet and reflective service is the highlight of their week. Once a month we have a more informal service including some discussion; this is followed by refreshments.
The Walking Group
The walking group is a place for those who are in or nearing retirement and want to keep active. The aim is to promote friendship and fellowship amongst church members who are now in a new phase of their lives. There are currently 6 events per year, which include a number of local walks to celebrate the seasons of the year. Food is also an important ingredient – a good pub lunch after the walk. Please contact:catherine@keechonline.com.
Activities
We have for many years celebrated Christmas and Easter with a short midweek afternoon service followed by tea. We also hold 'mini breaks' twice a year where we meet together for food, fun and creativity!
