2025
"Reimagining All Saints Church: Have Your Say!"
Help shape the future of our church as a welcoming hub for all.
Our aim is to reorder the inside of All Saints Church to bring the building into the 21st Century, transforming it into a multi-use space for the whole community. We envision a church that is:
Welcoming: A place where everyone feels at home.
Accessible: Level access and facilities for all.
Versatile: A hub for worship, events, and gatherings every day.
Consultation Date: 25th February, Time: 19:30, Location: All Saints Church, Cressing
What We’re Proposing:
Adding essential facilities like toilets and a kitchen area.
Installing a screen, projector, and comfortable, movable seating instead of pews.
Creating level access for disabled parishioners and visitors.
Reconfiguring the space for modern worship and community use.
Your Input Matters!
Join us to share your thoughts and help shape this exciting transformation.
Can’t Attend the Consultation?
We still want to hear from you! Email us at: tayrina@caup.org.uk or Call us at: 01376 349393.
