Prayer Ministry Team

Our team is on hand every Sunday to pray with people after the morning service. Please come up when folk are free, or if you would rather stay in your seat we could come and pray with you there.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philemon 4:6-7

Living Well Together (also known as 'The Well')

Community Pantry

‘Pop-Up’ Community Food Pantry in Shanklin 

What is it?

Aspire Ryde and the Living Well and Early Help Service currently run around 9 such pantries across the Island (some are pop-up and some permanent) and are currently trialling a pop-up in the church.

Elders have given approval to this, and we have agreed to ‘host’ them on Monday mornings ~ these will begin on 27th January and will run weekly. We have agreed to open the church from 10:00 on Mondays … Abi & Charity (the pantry team) will park on the frontage and then set up ‘crates’ of non-perishable food and other household items on our tables inside the church.

All local residents and those from the surrounding areas may use the facility that will be open to clients between 10:30 and 12:00.

How it works

Folks who wish to use the pantry have to register (no fee) and may use one of the Island pantries once a week where, for a fee of £5, they get “15 points” to spend (roughly equivalent to £15) on whatever they choose (donated items are also available free of charge).

The scheme itself is funded by the HM Government Household Support fund which provides an additional £10 towards the individual cost for each person using the pantry.
