Pray for 5 

Pray-for-five-vision

Over the course of 2025 and into 2026, Rev'd Mike is encouraging everyone to pray for 5 people they would love to know God. 

Write down the names of the 5 people for whom you would regularly like to pray, and if you are not sure who to pray for, ask God to guide you as you choose. Once you have settled on the five names, commit to praying for them regularly using the following prayer:

Loving Father,
in the face of Jesus Christ
your light and glory have blazed forth.
Send your Holy Spirit that I may share with my friends... [name them here]
the life of your Son and your love for all.
Strengthen me as a witness to that love
as I pledge to pray for them,
for your name's sake. Amen. 


Here are some ideas that might help you to make this a regular prayer:

  1. Tie 5 knots in a piece of string, one to represent each person and either put it in your pocket, or place it somewhere you will regularly see it to remind you to pray.
  2. Find 5 small stones and write the names of the 5 people on them, then put them on the fireplace/desk, or somewhere you will regularly see them to remind you to pray.
  3. Write the 5 names on a piece of card and place it in your wallet/purse, so you have them with you and can reach in and pray regularly.
  4. Set an alert on your phone, with the names of the 5 people on it, that goes off everyday to remind you to pray for them.
  5. Write the names on 5 post-it notes and put them on your mirror or above your bed where you will see them regularly to remind you to pray.
Whatever you choose, lets make this a regular part of our day between now and Easter 2026, and lets see what the Holy Spirit might do with these people.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

A warm welcome to our parish!

We have lots going on, with many different ways to get involved with church life. If you’re new, come to one of our services where you can meet a few friendly faces and find out more about us.

You may also choose to sign up for our weekly email newsletter, (see here), which provides useful information about what’s going on as well as church family news. But don’t worry, we won’t spam your inbox! 

Finding a new church can be hard, and we want to help any way we can. If you are looking for a new church home, we thought you’d want to know what we are all about.

We believe God’s mission for us is to be “Sharing, Caring, Growing in Christ.” And how doing that we grow in LOVE toward God and neighbour.

Mission
In Christ


Even though it is at the end of our mission statement, the words “In Christ” encapsulates the starting point as our lives as Christians. Everything begins with our relationship with God, in Christ, as we grow, care, and share, loving our God by loving our neighbour.


Growing


We believe your journey of faith is one of constant growth. We learn more about God and our faith as we study God’s truth given to us in the Bible. God loves us too much to be done developing us into the disciples He wants us to be, and so we continue to seek to grow in what it means to be His followers.


Caring


A Christian life is one of caring for each other. We share the love and joy we receive from God by caring for them. Jesus first showed that care for us by his death on the cross and the forgiveness he delivers. We, then, get to live that our in our lives by caring and serving our neighbours.


Sharing


What an opportunity God gives us, to share the good news of what Jesus has done for us. Now, more than ever, this world needs to hear the message of a God who loves them, who died for them, who hears their prayers, and who promises to be with them always. As His disciples, we get to be the ones to share that message of hope, love, and peace. 
 

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the month, some afternoons and some evenings. We can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team.
