Who we are

Our church is a mixture of diverse people, with many different gifts and abilities.  We try to recognise and use these gifts in many ways in our church family.  You can find out more about some of these people by following the links below.

Our Leadership Team are people who play a prominent part in the life of the church, and have clearly defined roles and areas of responsibility.  They meet (as the Standing Committee) with the Vicar to support and advise him, and together agree on the priorities for the church's worship and witness.

We have an elected PCC (Parochial Church Council) who oversee the life of the church, and is the key decision making group within the church.

We have an agreed Mission Statement, and try each year to be guided by it as we follow God's calling to be his church in Southwater.

The PCC are elected at the Annual Church Meeting each year, which is a meeting open to people living in Southwater.  You can read the reports prepared for that meeting, or see the slide presentation for the evening. You can download a power point viewer here.

If you want to be a member of our church, you can ask to go on to the Electoral Roll.  by doing this, it ensures that you receive regular newsletters and updates, and allows you to vote at church meetings.  Details are on the electoral roll page, or you can speak to our Electoral Roll Officer, Barbara Varley.

As a church we want to play our part in the wider world, and so support different Partners in Mission in addition to local, national and international charities.

Each month the vicar writes an article in the Southwater News and has a blog on the Sunday's activities
