West Berkshire Foodbank
At a time when demand is increasing, your donations are essential for the Foodbank to be able to offer help and support for those in difficulties in our local communities. Thank you!
Their current needs list is on https://westberks.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/donate-food/
Donations can be left at our church in the basket in the foyer. The church is also used as a distribution point and support centre for the Foodbank on Thursdays.
Hope Explored
Hope is a wonderful thing – but few things are more crushing than when our hopes are disappointed. A hope worth having needs to be true; to deliver what it promises; and to be for something that will last. That’s what the Christian faith claims to offer: a hope worth having. Real hope is a joyful expectation for the future, based on true events in the past, which changes everything about the present.
West Berkshire Refugee Support
Thank you for your continued support and prayers as our friends await decisions from the Home Office.

LIVESTREAMING: as we are continuing to livestream our services we will endeavour to not film children unless pre-agreed. However please be aware that:
If you sit on the front 2 rows, you may be caught on camera.
If your child appears unexpectedly on the stage or within the front 2 rows, they may be caught on camera. We would ask that if you do not want your child to appear on camera, you prevent this from happening.
