We are relaunching the prayer diary on Sunday 19th October. Copies are available from the back of church, together with resources on prayer from Paul and Doreen.

Volunteers Needed – Café Church (Starting January!)

We’re excited to share that plans are underway for our new ‘Café Church’, launching in January, and taking place on the third Sunday of each month. This will be a relaxed, family/child-friendly service designed to welcome newcomers and help people explore faith in an informal, engaging way, over coffee and cake.

To make this vision a reality, we need volunteers to help with a variety of roles, from setting up tables and serving refreshments to welcoming guests, and helping with children’s activities.

If you’d like to get involved we’d love to hear from you! Please speak to Niamh Holman or email niamh.holman@stamfordallsaints.org.uk to find out more.

Communion

If getting to the altar to receive communion is a problem, please speak to one of the wardens at the start of the service and you can receive communion in the pew.

When you receive Communion please do not dip the host into the cup.  You may receive in one kind.
