Benefice service 9th August

On Sunday 9th August St. James is hosting our Benefice service at 10.30am.

We are delighted to be welcoming Peace back to our church. Her charity has a special place in our hearts as members of our congregation travelled to visit her project in Uganda last year and we have been able to help them build accomodation blocks on their site.

Across our churches we sponsor over 40 compassion children and Peace is an amazing example of what your generosity and prayer alongside their dedication can accomplish.
