Volunteers Required – Children’s Church Activities – Ironstone Benefice

Rev Alicia Baker is looking to form a team of people to assist with running Church activities for children within the Ironstone Benefice.  This may be in a variety of ways – for example, holding occasional Saturday craft events at village halls, visiting schools, or providing activities for children during some Sunday services. To begin with, Revd Alicia Baker would like those interested to meet to discuss ideas, possible avenues for children’s Church activities in the community, what level of commitment people could offer and what people’s particular gifts might be. Volunteers will be required to do the Church of England’s safeguarding procedures. If you would like more details, please contact Rev Alicia Baker on 01295 738593 or email rectorofironstone@gmail.com
