holy::ground is now up and running. It is a merger between sacred:space (Christchurch Woking) and Holy Ground (Trinity Methodist)
holy::ground is a fresh expression (FX) of church, that meets twice a month at st michael’s sheerwater. 'we are
creative, experimental and believe
in having fun as well as exploring what it means to live well and build
community together.'
