Morning Prayer

Everyone is welcome to join in with Morning Prayer, held in the Mildmay Chapel and gathering at 9am on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays during term time.

If you would like to join us, it is advisable to download the 'Daily Prayer' App on your phone in advance, this will be useful as we will use this for our framework. This is a simple service with an opportunity to explore the day's Bible passages and offer up prayers for the day and its tasks. Do please join us if you are able, we look forward to seeing you.

Sevenoaks Loaves and Fishes Foodbank
We are looking for a willing volunteer to help with our food bank donations. Richard kindly took over from Reverend Diane when she retired, and now it's time to pass the job on to someone else. The Food Bank is open for donations every Thursday morning between 11.15am and 12.30pm at the Church Hall at St John's Church, St John's Hill, Sevenoaks. The volunteer will need to be able to visit the food bank once every two to three weeks. If you can spare the time to volunteer please contact shorehamparish@gmail.com. A big thank you to Richard for all your time and effort with handling the donations for so long!

The number of families needing the help of foodbanks continues to grow. Please consider whether you could add something for our local foodbank to your weekly shop. Boxes for donations are at the back of the church.

Holy Communion

As a church family we like people to feel included in our Holy Communion services. However if you are unable to attend church on those Sundays, or you know someone who would like to receive Home Communion because they are physically unable to attend church, then please contact shorehamparish@gmail.com and we will add you to our list for visits for Home Communion once a month.
