In the All Age Worship service at the beginning of September we thought about God’s Creation. We created the world with different colours and textures as we thought about what God did each day. We thanked God for Creation and thought about how we can better look after the world.
Margy and I were recently at a funeral in Guildford. We were there to thank God for a most amazing and delightful Christian woman. She was for years the Head of the Religious Education Department in a large comprehensive school in the middle of a council house estate. Her lessons were phenomenal. Boys and girls […]
The summer can often be a time to reacquaint ourselves with old friends along with making new ones. With the longer and milder days, it’s also a season of weddings, BBQs, gardening and perhaps a holiday, which can be a great chance to gather with others – or escape of course!

The Moringa Tree Cafe May 2019 It’s been a great first year for Cafe Saintz! We’ve met on the fourth Sunday of every month at the Moringa Tree Cafe in the evening. We are delighted they have let us use the cafe as it makes a lovely location for the group. Between 4 and 10 […]
