St Nicolas Church Cranleigh

St Nicolas Church Cranleigh Welcome! We are a church in and for Cranleigh, see www.stnicolascranleigh.org.uk for more info! About 1340 a new chancel was built.

St Nicolas Church is the Church of England parish Church in Cranleigh, Surrey, UK. There has been a church on the site since 1170, At first just a simple rectangle occupying the area of the present nave, it was enlarged later in the 12th century by the addition of side aisles and the tower. During the 1860s a clergy vestry and a new porch were built. In 1911 a choir vestry was added. Today, the C

hurch offers different styles of worship, where all are welcome. We believe that all can grow in faith, learn, celebrate and worship in whatever way suits them. As a Church, we represent all ages and all stages of life. We encourage those of different ages to interact with and learn from each other. We provide lots of opportunities for families, children and young people to meet and socialise. As a Church, we are not just about Sundays or Services. St Nicolas is a meeting place, a welcoming, engaging environment, providing friendship, support. . You will recieve a warm welcome and we look forward to seeing or hearing from you.

At present, the Parish Church Magazine is edited by a very small team of people, two of whom volunteer their time in addition to their normal paid employment. We would love to add a couple more people to the team so that we can continue to provide a high quality magazine for everyone in the parish.

It is straightforward and fun… If you are familiar with Microsoft Word, know how to copy and paste documents and pictures, are familiar with the internet then you can do it!

Our editors work on a rota, taking it in turns to edit the magazine once every few months.

If you could offer your time, please get in touch with Peter Bond on 01483-268672 or email [email protected]

Coming Sunday 19th of July we are saying goodbye to our Curate Erik and his family! They have been a part of our church family and the village community for the last three years, and as Erik moves to his new appointment at St Mary's Barton (an estate on the edge of Oxford), it will be great to see him and his family off with his last service at 10am (though if you are an early bird, Erik will also be leading and preaching at our 8am service), followed by a BBQ lunch in the Church Rooms at 12.30. Everyone is very welcome!

Thanks again to Martin Bamford Photography for the picture, taken at our ecumenical Palm Sunday procession!

We are so grateful to report that our annual Rectory Fete raised over £6500 in support of our church, to look after our church building and churchyard and preserve it as a space of peace and welcome for all, to reach out in the village with the Good News of Jesus, to have activities, worship and teaching for all ages, in short, to love and serve you as we love and serve God.

Thank you so much for all who came out and to all our wonderful volunteers, bands and other entertainment, stallholders, generous donations by so many people and businesses in the village, and all those who came out to enjoy our Fete!

Thank you all so much and see you again next year - if you'd like to join in or volunteer, or have a brilliant idea to add to the Fete, please drop us a line, we'd love to have you! Or if you'd just like to join in with anything St Nicolas is doing - you are always very welcome at your parish church!

P.s. In all the excitement, most of us seem to have forgotten to take pictures, feel free to share them below!

Just a reminder of the Bishop’s invitation to the Gathering tonight, reception at 7pm at which you can meet with Bishop Paul, and the worship service starts at 7.30pm. It’s a great opportunity to meet each other and celebrate what God is doing in Cranleigh – especially yesterday’s exciting news!

Bishop Paul, who is now Acting Bishop of Guildford, would love to get to know you and has invited us all to join him at St Nicolas Church, Cranleigh tomorrow evening at his Bishop’s Gathering for our deanery. There will be a reception with the bishop at 7pm and the gathering starts at 7.30pm. Bishop Paul will be sharing his vision for our diocese and leading us in prayer and worship. There will also be a wide range of speakers from our parishes sharing some amazing stories of what God is already doing amongst us. It should be an inspiring evening so do come if you can.

Alleluia, Christ is risen! Join us for our services at 7.30, main service at 10am or Evensong at 6pm!
