SUPPORT WITH CHURCH HIRE. Hiring out the church is appreciated by the community. Do you have time to take and agree church bookings for concerts and liaise with the church wardens about meeting those wanting to hire the church? If so, please talk to Ben, the church wardens or contact Mary-Rose at maryroseshears@btinternet.com
ST ANNE'S OPENING TIMES: Due to current building works, we are unable to open the church during the week, as we usually do. The church is open for all the usual services and events, such as daily Morning Prayer 0915 to 0945 monday and friday and other events publicised on the website. We hope the internal building work will be completed in December and the church can be open as usual.
ST ANNE'S WEBSITE: www.stanneslewes.org.uk - Our website offers resources for our growth in discipleship. On the website you can now find recent sermons collated in one place under the tag sermons. Also, we have a regular slot called Spiritual Reflections which aims to look at questions of faith in a fresh, imaginative way. Contact Ashley or Ben if you can't find the content.
