Pastoral Care

As a church we are responsible for the spiritual wellbeing of everyone who lives in our parish. If people are unable to get to church or need a separate pastoral visit we will do everything we can to ensure they receive the support they need. This could include receiving Holy Communion at home. If you know of anyone who needs a visit, please do contact Revd Steve on 07789 692996 and he will arrange for him or someone else on the pastoral visiting team to visit them.
