churches and leaders have been worshiping and working together for many

There is also a network of Churches on the
Island,
Wight Churches,
with a website and information service, which serves the whole Christian
community on the Isle of Wight. |

a New Treasurer
The
accounts are quite simple with only a small amount of activity so anyone
with a basic grasp of banking would be able to handle this small task. Do
please pray that someone will come forward and offer very soon. |

Rylstone Gardens Open Air Praise
From the last Sunday in May until the last one
in August, at
19:30, we have Praise and Worship in the open air every
week on
Sunday evening in Rylstone Gardens - a lovely inspiring setting for Christian worship.

on the pictures for a larger version)
The season of open air praise services
starts each year on Pentecost Sunday and runs through to the end of August.
Different groups take it in turns to lead the meetings and always
attracts a good number of holiday visitors - if the weather isn't fair then
we resort to meeting in one of Shanklin's Churches.
For details of where Rylstone Gardens
are, see
How To Find Us.
