  • Members meet each month to arrange social events and fund raising initiatives to help raise parish funds which are very necessary to meet regular financial demands ​on the decreasing budget.

    For more information on our upcoming events please check the weekly newsletter.

  • We are blessed to have a lot of land around the church but need extra support from volunteers to keep on top of the weeds etc.
