Preaching Team
This team meets on a regular
basis to share ideas regarding forthcoming sermon themes based
on the Sunday lectionary, and to discuss helpful articles and books
on preaching.
The team comprises the Rector and the Readers.
Baptism Team
This work involves both adults
and young people, but since most children who are brought for baptism
are babies, the focus for preparation is on the adults.
Wendy Stiddard
runs a baptism preparation course on two consecutive Saturday mornings
from 10 a.m. to 11.30 a.m. This course is held five or six times
a year.
Baptism service sidesperson co-ordinator: Carole Harris

Confirmation
There is generally a confirmation service
each year which is conducted by the Bishop. The timing of the confirmation
groups is in relation to the date of the confirmation service.
Please contact the Rector, if you would like
to join a confirmation group.
These groups are also open to those who simply want to explore
the spiritual life without further commitment and to those who
would like a refresher course in the Christian faith.
Confirmation groups are run for both adults and young people.
