Our Greatest Need

Quote 4 2day title logo Blog

If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent a financier; if pleasure, an entertainer. As it is forgiveness, He sent a Saviour. – Nicky Gumbel

Prayer 4 2day wireless logo

Father in heaven, I know that I have broken your laws and that my sins have separated me from you. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life.

Please forgive me, andΒ help me avoid sinning again.
I believe that you sent your sonΒ Jesus Christ, who died for my sins,Β was resurrected from the dead, andΒ is now alive.Β I invite Jesus toΒ become the Lord of my lifeβ€”to ruleΒ and reign in my heart from this dayforward.

Please send me your HolyΒ Spirit to help me to obey you, and
to do your will for the rest of my life.

In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

We spent a morning visiting the beautiful village of Shere walking around the Church building, blacksmiths & the few shops.

ShereΒ is a village in theΒ Guildford districtΒ ofΒ Surrey,Β EnglandΒ about 6 miles (9.7Β km) east ofΒ GuildfordΒ and 4 miles (6.4Β km) west ofΒ Dorking, bypassed by theΒ A25. It is a small village with many traditional English features. It has a small central cluster of old village houses, shops including a blacksmith and trekking shop, tea house, art gallery, two pubs and aΒ Norman-era church. Shere has a museum which opens most afternoons at weekends. TheΒ TillingbourneΒ stream runs through the centre of the village.

The church is Norman, most being 12th, 13th and 14th century, ofΒ ironstoneΒ rubble with sandstone buttresses, restored in 1895 by S. Weatherley. By the north chancel wall there is a 14th century quatrefoil window and squint – belonging to Anchorite Cell.

Quote from website:Β We are a Church of England (Anglican) parish church in a beautiful area of Epsom, Surrey. We are part of theΒ Guildford Diocese,Β which covers much of Surrey and part of North-east Hampshire. We also have responsibility forΒ Christ Church on the Wells, our church plant, which meets on a Sunday at the community centre on the Wells estate (the part of Epsom where Epsom Salts once came from!)

We are also part of the Epsom Group Ministry, a confederation of Anglican churches in Epsom, which includes the churches ofΒ St Martin with St Stephenon the Downs, and St Barnabas. Along with the Group Ministry, we also have a very good relationship withΒ Epsom Methodist Church, in the centre of Epsom.

Our beautifulΒ Victorian churchΒ (do have a look at theΒ slide showΒ or theΒ photo gallery!) has been home for many years to a lively Christian community. We hope that, if you are able to visit us, you will find space here to discover more about God and the Christian faith, time to pray and reflect, and also the opportunity to make new friends.
