Junior Church   All Saints is delighted with the Junior Church which is open to all children and young people from across the AVMC.  It meets once a month on the third Sunday of the month tying in with the monthly 'Together @ Ten' service.  It currently caters for young people between the ages of 4 and 14.  Some time is spent in the Church service, some work is undertaken at the back of the Church and sometimes the youngsters are taken out to the Village Hall opposite for fun activities, supervised by our Leaders, Rebecca and Richard Remington.  Everyone joins back together in the Church for the end of the Service and for refreshments afterwards, which are served at the back of the Church.

Breakfast Fare 

This is run by the Church on the second Saturday each month in the Village Hall with a small selection of stalls and a range of freshly cooked delicious breakfast items.  It provides both a very popular village meeting point and vital fund raising for the Church.  Breakfast Fare runs from 8.30 - 11.30 am (last orders: 11.00am).  All are welcome! 
Contact details for booking a stall, pre-ordering breakfast or further details: David Knight (01297 34407).

Friends of All Saints' Church 

Friends provide a means by which people near and far can keep in touch and support the life of the Parish Church of All Saints'.  They operate under the guidance of the PCC with the objective of preserving the fabric of the building and enriching the life of All Saints' Church for present and future generations.  They have been highly successful in raising funds by collecting annual subscriptions and organising a range of social events which in the recent past have included a Burns Night, Orchestral Concert and Village Quiz.  Further details available from the Churchwardens.  If you are not already a Friend, please do consider joining!

Parish Giving Scheme 

The PCC voted to adopt a planned giving scheme in May 2018. Further details available from the Churchwardens.

Chancel Restoration

Here is the church looking at it's best at Easter 2018.
But up in the chancel it doesn't look so good.

Sadly, over a period of time, water has seeped into the Chancel and now both external and internal renovation work is badly needed. 
To assist with the cost of having the work done 'Friends of All Saints' Church' are holding various fund raising events.
