You are warmly invited to celebrate the church’s birthday on Saturday 14th September 2024 from 10am-12pm. The 'Birthday of Holy Nativity' is an opportunity to gather together to remember the joy of what it means to be a community. A team of volunteers, along with our community partners, have organised a flower festival, children’s activities, food and refreshments for everyone to enjoy as well as tombola and raffle prizes to win. Why not use this day of celebration to see what's available for you and your family and perhaps have a chat with our volunteers and partners to see how you too could get involved and join or create new initiatives to support the parish community.
The survey will help us answer three questions:· What should our focus be?Your answers will help us decide about what we could be doing more of or less of as a church.· How do we like to express our faith and grow our faith in this church? Your answers will help us spot our strengths and how we could grow in our faith journey together.· What groups of people do we have in our church? The survey will also ask you for some demographic information, such as your age group and ethnicity. We ask these questions so that we can check how far the makeup of our church mirrors the makeup of the local community. This will help us check what groups we're reaching already and where there are opportunities.What we find out will help us see where we’re doing well, and help us discern areas where God might be calling us to do something new or different.It’s important that as many people as possible in the church answer the survey, so that we get an accurate picture.Click here to complete the survey online: Church Development Tool - A Church Near You
