Latest News Former Ripley School Site
The Trustees have now received communication from the Department for Education (DfE) regarding the former Ripley Church of England Primary School site.
In summary the DfE is minded not to grant the Sec 554 requested by the Diocese. It proposes instead to transfer the main school site to the Local Authority (Surrey County Council) and to leave the pre-school building in the care of the site trustees.
The Trustees are carefully considering this proposal and our next steps.
We hold a service at 10am every Sunday
Newcomers and visitors are very welcome
You do not need to be confirmed or a communicant to come to any of these services.
If you have any special requirements or would like more information before visiting, please contact churchwardens@ripleychurch.org.uk
The 1st and 3rd Sundays in a month are traditional Communion services.
The 2nd Sunday of the month is an all-age service which is more informal and particularly suitable for families, though everyone is very much invited!
The 4th Sunday in the month is a traditional service of the word (no Communion).
Any 5th Sunday in the month is a café style service around small tables in the church room, followed by a discussion about church life. and a group ministry service with friends in Ockham and Horsley where the location varies. See church calendar for specific dates.
A prayer for the people of the Holy Land
If you've been unsure how to respond to the news from Israel and Palestine, the Archbishop of Canterbury shares these words to shape our prayers. And if unsure how to support, we recommend Christian Aid, Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) or Palestinian Children's Relief Fund (PCRF)
