Comment on the pews

I think that we should have a better idea of why we are moving the pews. They form an important part of the traditional church and whilst uncomfortable are integral to the Sunday experience. I like the idea of a entrance area at the back of the church - this will avoid the scrum we often get a the end of services. I don't think the toilet pod is a practical idea - it will be too big for the space we have.

Renewal 2010

For some time we have been thinking and praying about future plans to ensure that our Church Building remains at the heart of the community and is able to continue to be fit to serve our worship and the community in the coming years.
It is important that everyone understands and is able to input to the decision making process about any changes that may be made .We will soon be embarking on a further major consultation with our friends and congregation to decide how best to ensure that Christchurch remains at the centre of the community in Swindon for the next 160 years. Please pray for all those concerned with trying to put across a clear vision and keep an eye on the website for more details.
