Mission team
Each year the church gives at least 10% of its unrestricted income to home and overseas mission work. Our church committee canvasses our congregation for ideas on which charities should be supported and six are identified; two each of a local, national and international focus in their work.
Local charities we support
The Bereaved Families Holiday Fund supports bereaved children by enabling their families to go on holiday.
National charities we support
Beyond the Streets is a UK charity who sees the possibility of life beyond sexual exploitation, working to see women safe from coercion, violence and abuse.
Frontline Debt Advice (UK) offer free debt advice, free welfare benefit advice, and training in both. Their nearest branches are in Paulsgrove and Hayling Island.

Sunday Suppers
Every Sunday evening, we offer support and freshly-cooked food to people in need. But it’s about so much more than the food…
We work with and mutually support the churches of St Jude’s and St Margaret’s, both of whom share our approach to ministry. They are each about one kilometre (two thirds of a mile) from us.
