Goostrey Work in the Community – Social Action

 
Messy Church for Children
 
Messy Church happens once a month on the second Wednesday afternoon from 3.30 to 6.00pm. 
 

Holiday Clubs for Children
 
Occasionally during school holidays we hold Holiday Clubs that draw in children who otherwise would not attend our church. These are supported by our Minister and always have a spiritual message.
 
 
Charity Lunches
 
In Lent we hold a series of charity lunches on our premises together with our Anglican friends from St Luke’s Parish Church. These are open to the whole village community to attend. Funds raised go to a charity selected at the start of each year.
 
 
Storehouse Food Bank
 
We support the Storehouse food bank in Congleton both financially and with a collection box for dry goods

 
Joint
Courses at Advent and Lent 
 
During Advent and Lent we often run courses aimed at strengthening fellowship and involving friends who might not normally attend worship. In recent years these have been joint courses with our Anglican friends and have been based on the York Courses.
 
 
'Talking of God' course

It is hoped that  the 'Talking of God' Bible study course will be an outreach mechanism.
