Welcome to St Edwards, at the Heart of the Community
Welcome to St Edwards...
Update Saturday 23rd January 2021
The Christmas Crib will continue to be up until Candlemas at the beginning of February and the church will be open from 10am to 1pm each day
With the opening of a new side door and gate we now have a better one way system and have decided to re-open for our SUNDAY SERVICE this week on 24th January 2021; we will also continue to STREAM the SERVICE at: www.facebook.com/stedsmottingham/ and we will continue to review the situation each week
For the moment Morning prayer continues at 8am Monday to Saturday as it is an important start to the day for some of our volunteers. Wednesday's Night Prayer is at 7pm
SUNDAYS Parish Communion at 10.30am, WEDNESDAYS Night Prayer at 7pm and Morning Prayer at 8am will also continue to be livestreamed on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/stedsmottingham/
If there are people you want us to PRAY for by NAME, please message us; Take care - stay safe and God Bless.
FUNERALS - we are able to take them at the Crematorium or Cemetery and in Church. Please phone 07711 611201 or email [email protected] for further information or ask your funeral director to contact us.
We also hold memorial services, prayers and other ways to mark your loved one's life; contact us on [email protected] or 07711 611201
We can now hold weddings and baptisms, blessings and other services of celebration but numbers are limited: call 07711 611201 to discuss
FOOD BANK: in the hall at 35 St Keverne Road, SE9 4AQ on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday - 9.30am to 1pm & Wednesday 6-7pm: come in and collect or if you need a delivery (eg due to illness, self-isolation or caring responsibilities) phone or message on 07395 565984
We can also help with access to IT, legal advice and support, SHOPPING and MEDICINE COLLECTION
Thanks to funding from London Funders, City Bridge Trust, the Charities Aid Foundation, Direct Line, the National Lottery and Chislehurst Rotary, local churches, schools, the community and the Glebe Football Club the food bank is well resourced. We are also part of the Bromley Wide Food Hub distributing food from Fare Share. So don't hesitate to seek help or tell others about it. Leaflets have been circulated across the community so that the details are available to those without access to IT. Thanks also to National Churches Trust for funds to mend the high roofs and to Croydon Gate Company for the newly installed gate which means we can now open the side path to the church for a proper one way system
OTHER ACTIVITIES are off whilst we are in lockdown - but will update as soon as restrictions ease
BUT the building development continues and we now have new side gates, more doors that open and a new location for the foodbank
