Welcome to the Stroud Team Calendar

This calendar is used not only to co-ordinate the complex activities across nine churches, but also to inform and populate our communications both with those in our congregations and across Stroud. Importantly it also helps us to know availability of our Church buildings for funerals, weddings and christenings.

Since you have access to this webpage then please help to keep it up to date. If you do not see events on this calendar then please use the form to the left to inform us. We’ll get those events added to the calendar within 48 hours.

Please tell us about events like Services, regular and one-offs, Outreach such as Schools work and family events, Discipleship such as home -groups and bible studies, and Fundraising events like coffee mornings.

Quite apart from anything else, the calendar shows just how much is going on…

Communion during this time

In these unprecedented times, we are working hard to find imaginative solutions in a landscape that has been rapidly changing. Sometimes we get things right, and sometimes we miss the mark. I apologise that this has been the case regarding communion.

For those of you who have received wafers in a parcel, we would ask that you either consume them, or put them somewhere safe to bring back once we are able to be together again.

We are going to be sending out a new order of service for use during this time as either a simple service of the word or, on occasion, to help us to share an Agape meal together.
