Men's Ministry - Keith Wickert is exploring whether men’s groups would be of value in our Parish. Groups in other Churches encompass a wide range of activities including Community Projects, Breakfast talks, Dad's and Children's play time, and often attract those on the fringes of Church life. Stephen Girling, who heads up this work in the Deanery, is willing to come and talk to us about the different possibilities so if you are interested please email Keith at [email protected].
