Spring Newsletter

Please have a read of the Spring Newsletter for 2025 for up to date information about what has been happening. 

Copies of this can be found in the church hall and will also be going up on the website after Easter.

Toy Library

A toy library operates similarly to a book library, providing a place for families to borrow toys, puzzles and games for a set period.  Members pay a small registration fee and can then select toys to take home, for a few weeks with the option to renew the ones you love! This allows families to explore various toys without the cost and clutter of buying everything. 

Come along to the church hall on Monday and Wednesday mornings, 10-11.30am during term time.

If you have any questions please email hannah@stmarysfetcham.org.uk.  We look forward to you joining us!

Messy Church

Messy Church is a growing service for all the family! We use creativity, and hospitality to explore bible stories and passages so families can enjoy time together building their faith whilst doing new and different crafts, games and much more.

This group regularly runs on a Sunday morning for preschool (supported by an adult) and primary school aged, during the 11.15am service in the church hall where we play games, do crafts, cooking and singing, and each week we hear a different story from the Bible.
