All Saints Church Witley, Surrey
Description
Welcome to the Facebook page for All Saints Church, Witley, Surrey. The mission of the church in Witley is to bring the love of God to all who live and work there. The church is open to all people, and here to serve the entire parish. Everyone is welcome at all services and other events and anyone is welcome to use the space in church for their own charitable or social events where appropriate.
If you are new to the area you are very welcome! There are a wide range of activities going on around the church that may interest you.
For those who want to find out more about Christianity and would like to explore the meaning of it all, an enquiry group lasting 8 weeks happens twice or three times a year, usually on a weekday evening. A team of Pastoral Assistants visit the housebound, take Communion to those who can't get to church for whatever reason, and generally help the clergy keep an eye on pastoral needs.

facebook.comMany congratulations to two of our choir on their very considerable success at their respective universities. Firstly, to Jonathan Feasey (who also plays the organ for us from time to time), who has won a First Class BMus Honours degree in Music at Surrey University. He is planning to continue as a student to do a Masters in Music Composition, also at Surrey. He has promised to write something for us, which we are looking forward to doing. Well done, Jonathan, and good luck with your continuing studies! Secondly, to Anne Chant, the acceptance of whose thesis ('An exploration of the relationship between personal and career identity in the stories of three women: a counter narrative for career development') completes her doctorate (PhD) from the Faculty of Education at Canterbury Christ Church University, where she works as Assistant Director of the Centre for Career and Personal Development. Fantastic news! Amazing to have such talent (very much appreciated) in our midst.
