Editor's page

This website has been running for several years now. Many thanks to all those who support it.

This site is not a replacement for the parish magazine. It is a different medium and for a different audience. It is for people who don't come to our church. The theme is an invitation to visit us and a welcome.

Many people now use the web regularly, indeed young people consider it invaluable. We have an opportunity to reach people through this medium. We are already beginning to welcome new people through the doors of All Saints partly due to the influence of the web site.

There is much that the congregation can do to be a part of this ongoing project. We would like more personal profiles. People rarely come to church when it's empty. Our church is us, not the place, nor the building. Our own accounts count more than architecture and art. Individually, we may think our own profile is boring and of no interest, but for a newcomer the variety of the collection is a compelling welcome to the church. Please email your personal profile.

We have a beautiful building, a lovely venue for weddings and christenings. We would like to include more photographs to ensure we don't lose young couples who choose a church for a wedding or christening from the web.

At every suitable opportunity we can point people to our web pages for more information. Please publicise this site, on all our publications and press releases in the same way as a telephone number or postal address. If people don't know the site is here, it might as well not exist.

Local information, local links and advertising are next on the agenda. Please email all material and references of interest to our audience to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
