St Paul’s ‘Shoebox Service’ is coming on 17th November. Check out How to Pack a Shoebox for details of what can and can’t be put into shoeboxes.
We have a limited number of shoeboxes which will be available nearer the time, or you can ‘pack online’ if you prefer. There are leaflets available at the back of church.
Alexandra was licensed and instituted as Vicar by Bishop Guli on 12 September. She has also become Assistant Diocesan Director of Ordinands, and will spend half her time in each role.

Revd Alan Bolding
It is with great sadness that we report the death of Rev Alan Bolding, who passed away peacefully in his sleep on Friday 16th August. Our thoughts are with his wife Pauline and his family.
Alan’s funeral was held at St Paul’s Church on 3rd September 2024. See www.revalanbolding.com.
We are a Christian Parish Church in Essex in the
Diocese of Chelmsford, and part of the
Church of England. We are here to spread the ‘Good News’ about
God and his Son Jesus Christ.
The Bible says “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in
him may not die but may have eternal life” (John 3:16). That means those who ‘follow’ Jesus Christ, who love his company, respect his teaching, trust his
promises and are prepared to let this affect their lives.
