SEPTEMBER
The pattern of church services changes in September, to reflect the greater freedoms we now enjoy. All the services mentioned below will take place in the church.
The Friendly Club is a new feature and runs on Thursdays.
Everyone is very welcome to join and have some fun. There is a flat fee of £2 on entrance to cover unlimited tea or coffee and biscuits.
The Friendly Club & Café is the initiative of the Wivenhoe Dementia Support Group in partnership with the PCC of St Mary’s Church.
Sunday Club will start again in September, on Sunday mornings 10.30.
A new weekly service has been introduced: Community Morning Prayer. Each Tuesday the church will be open for half an hour for a moment of peace and reflection, after the hectic school run or just as a start to your day.
