Parish Needs Process

The new phase of this has started, we had a meeting with our Diocesan Mission Enabler, Rev’d David Senior om Friday 3rd January at the Vicarage with the PCC. We discussed and planned the next steps. Please keep praying as we seek God’s will for the parish and how with our limited resources we can grow God’s Kingdom here.

Used Stamps

Don't forget to keep the stamps from your Christmas cards and leave them in the box at the back of St Thomas' so that they can be taken to Oxfam in the new year.

Godalming Minster Choir: - at St Martha’s

Visiting and singing this Sunday 12th January at our 11:15 BCP Communion service, why not come and enjoy it.

Roles within the Parish

As we approach the APCM, now would be a good time to think and pray about how you might get involved with helping within the parish. We always need people to commit to helping make this a great parish showing God’s love to all – talk to David and see how you may help.

ALPHA: - We are aiming to start an Alpha Course this year, please pray and think who you would like to invite and maybe get involved as well.
