"And the people of Nineveh believed in God; they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least…God saw their efforts to renounce their evil ways. And God relented about the disaster which He had threatened to bring on them, and He did not bring it." (Jonah 3:5,10) Please Invite others to join the day on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/events/911998444365954/

We are happy to invite you to join us on Tuesdays and Fridays from 5:45 PM to prepare sandwiches and refreshments for our guests. We also collect and organise food from local cafés throughout the evenings which we then take to Lincoln's Inn Fields to distribute to an orderly queue of clients. 
Participants often tell us how stimulating and interesting an evening with our guests makes them feel. We have students from the local French school who come to get experience in our community. Come practise your French, exchange ideas and make friends. Questions? WhatsApp/Text: 07814 510991.

A reminder that the toilet facilities in the crypt are best accessed via the staircase on the Blandford Street side of the church, leading as it does directly to the Disabled facilities - where Baby changing facilities can be found - and the corridor on which the other cloakrooms are located.

Safeguarding is an important and indeed crucial part of the life we share as a parish. It is a fundamental of human justice that the dignity of every person - most especially the young and the vulnerable - should never be compromised. Denise Hines co-ordinates our parochial safeguarding and her contact details (spanishplacesg@safeguard.rcdow.org.uk or on 07597 190301) are on the notice board in the George Street porch should any concerns be felt: we are grateful for Denise’s time given to this role.

​

The Repository & Information Desk is open on weekdays from 11.00am to 12.30am then on Saturdays from 3.45pm to 4.45pm and Sundays from 9.45am to 10.30am, 11.30am to 1pm and 3pm to 4pm. Volunteers are always welcome!
