Story

Hi everyone

I have set myself a challenge to raise funds for the Spaceforall Project at All Saints Church Wokingham.  My aim during the month of November 2021 is to swim 1000 lengths (25km).  This is a big challenge for me because I only learnt to swim properly during the last few years having developed lymphoedema following breast cancer.  I will start on 1st and finish on 30th November.   If I fall ill I will continue in December, but I will finish it!  I will give weekly updates on how I am progressing.  Jo

About the charity

We are a Church of England church aiming to be active and make a positive difference to you and our local community in Wokingham. We are an open and approachable church where you can be yourself and feel at home, get involved in a wide range of activities, or simply be present in our worship of God at Sunday or weekday services. We have a vision to be a church full of life, love and energy. We aim to offer a friendly and stimulating community for you, your family and friends to engage with; whether or not you would think of yourself as religious or a “church-goer”. We are here to celebrate or support you and your family in key times of life’s journey – christenings, weddings, funerals; and be a community of spiritual and emotional support when times are tough. We offer many opportunities for prayer, learning and exploration of being and living with faith in God and the person of Jesus Christ. We are a great community for children and young people. There are many events and activities for families with young children to enjoy being part of the church, having fun and meeting new friends; during the week as well as on Sundays. Our church community building The Cornerstone hosts a wide range of community activities and is run with volunteer help. Our five- acre churchyard, as well as being a sacred memorial space for many local families also serves as quiet haven of green space near the centre of a busy town.
