We would love for you to make friends and get to know many of us as you join our church. If you’re finding out more about Jesus and Christianity then we’d encourage you to do Alpha, or else we’d encourage you to join a Fellowship Group. As a growing church Fellowship Groups are one of the key ways in which we can build meaningful relationships, share fellowship, receive pastoral care and to study the Bible.

We would then encourage you to get involved in serving. Whatever your gift is, whether it’s working with children, playing an instrument or doing some practical jobs there is a way for you to serve and meet people while you do it. Join us in praying corporately through one of our prayer meetings and giving or tithing generously to support the work that God is doing in and through us. 
 

We are one body made up of many parts, and everyone has a part to play in the life of the church. Serving is a great way to grow as well as meet new people. There are lots of ways you can get involved in life at St Mary Bredin. So please let us know what area of serving you may be interested in. If you’re unsure where you can get involved then do get in touch and we’d love to help you work out where you can serve and use your gifts. We look forward to hearing from you!

'...Lord, teach us to pray…’   
(Luke 11)

Prayer and Worship are the foundation of everything we do at St Mary Bredin. We’d love to encourage you to get involved in the prayer life here.

Prayer Ministry
At the end of every service there is an opportunity for anyone who would like to, to receive prayer. This is an opportunity to stand beside a brother or sister in Christ to receive God’s blessing and wisdom and can be as a response from the sermon or anything else. One of our team would love to pray with you. This is a great opportunity for you to receive from God.
 

We believe that God calls us to tithe to our local place of worship as part of our discipleship and worship. We can only continue to pursue and seek to fulfil God’s calling on us as we as a church continue to tithe and give as God calls us to.
