Annual Parochial Church Meeting

Easter reminds us that when we look at the Cross it is now empty. Jesus is risen! The other bit of good news is that he is always alongside, guiding and inspiring us. What can be less comforting is that now He is risen we are his hands and feet … we get to do the work whilst being guided and inspired.

There are many ways of serving the current and future of St Giles’ and St George’s, but none are as strategic as serving on the Parochial Church Council.

We are a friendly bunch who are not afraid to listen to God and come up with answers to the opportunities we face together as we direct, grow and resource our church. Are you up for being part of the solution, or do you know someone who is? Please pray and act.

For more information, please talk to one of the Clergy, Church Wardens, or current PCC members.

New PCC and Deanery Synod members will be elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) at 8pm on Thursday 18 May when we will also look back on the past year and look forward to the challenging but exciting year ahead. 5 places PCC and 8 Deanery Synod.

Closing date for nominations is 14 May. Forms and further details are available at: www.sgsgashtead.org.uk/apcm. APCM papers will be available on the church website. An email will be sent shortly via ChurchSuite with a link to a password. Paper copies on request via Reception.

If you are not already on our parish Electoral Roll and would like to be, the final date to complete an Electoral Roll form is Sunday 30 April.
