Welcome Church is going Solar Powered!

Last year as a church we received an Eco Church Award which we were really pleased to get. Christopher also preached about the importance of being Faithful With Our Planet during our autumn preaching series.

We’re now delighted to announce that next week we’re having Solar Panels fitted across the south facing roof of the chapel. Scaffolding will be up from Monday 15th to Friday 19th for this to be done, so if you see it and wonder what’s going on, now you know. If all the work goes according to schedule, the scaffolding will be gone before the following Sunday meeting.

Your Fund Surrey

One really exciting piece of news about these solar panels is that, not only will they save us money and burn less fossil fuels, but we haven’t even had to pay for them. The entire installation has been funded by Your Fund Surrey.

Big thanks go to Uti from our Office Team for making this happen and also to Lance Spencer, who sits on Surrey County Council, for his guidance, his drive and his assistance.

Week away

One last thing: please pray for us next week as we have our Eldership Team week away. We’ll be away together from Sunday afternoon until Thursday evening to pray for the church and seek God for his direction for the future. These times, which we’ve often done at the start of a year, have always been very significant for where we go as a church. Do please pray for us all.
