Christenings and Weddings
If you are thinking about having a wedding or a christening at one of our churches. To discuss either of these events, please come along to a Church Service and I will be happy to talk with you about the occasion. If I am not there, because I am at another church, one of the Churchwardens will be happy to meet with you.
