Good Morning , Are you free at the moment? As i will like you to help me with a task.

​If you respond to the email "Rev Colin Gibson" will ask you for money - Please do not reply - just delete the message.  I would recommend that you sign up for Thames Valley Alert emails as they regularly explain how to identify scam emails. https://www.thamesvalleyalert.co.uk/

Our local PCSO, Les Bradfield, has arranged a meeting in Wraysbury Village Hall on 21st July (6pm to 8pm) to focus on current scams and frauds – and how not to be a victim – all are welcome to attend

We are legally permitted to meet  – but we must still do everything in our power to limit the spread of infection.
 
We shall still be observing the recommended precautions:
Although masks are no longer compulsory we continue to recommend them for your safety. We have reserved pews for those who wish to ensure that they are isolated from other churchgoers. People using those pews must wear a mask.
 
Please see the newsletter on the Events tab to read about the steps we must take to protect each other

About us

We are a local church whose mission is to is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ and to increase the Christian family through our prayers, our worship and our God-centred lives.

We, like most churches, are made up of a wide variety of people of all ages and experiences of life. Some of us have had a lifelong relationship with Christ, some of us are exploring the foothills, all of us are travelling on the journey of faith.

The Vicar

​

"What really fires me up in ministry is when I see people's relationship with God come alive as they go deeper with Jesus. Jesus said, 'I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full'."
