Outreach

Dinner Bell

Dinner Bell is a community lunch provided by members and volunteers at All Saints' Church Hall. It takes place on a Friday lunchtime during term time, between 12noon and 2.00pm.

We provide freshly cooked meals with soup, a meat and vegetarian option with fresh vegetables for main course and a dessert. Customers can choose one, two or three courses, followed by tea or coffee if they wish, all at competitive prices.

Dinner Bell welcomes customers of all ages and provides an opportunity to meet with friends, or make new ones.

Toddler Group

There are two Toddler groups.

The Monday group is run by members of the church who set up the equipment and activities and provide and clear away the refreshments. The children have ride on toys at one end of the hall, a separate area for the babies, different areas for imaginative play, table top and craft activities. There is a short break for a snack and time for play before finishing with circle time singing. Our aim is to show God’s love by making the parents, carers and children feel special and loved.

The Thursday group is run by a friendly group of Mums and carers, contact can be made through the Church office. The activities and routines are very similar to the Monday group but the Mums and carers have the responsibility of setting up and clearing the equipment, the craft activities and the refreshments.

Pop-up Café

The Pop-Up Café is open from 9.30am -11.30am on Thursday mornings DURING SCHOOL HOLIDAYS only. At this lovely intergenerational café you will find scrumptious home made cakes, hot and cold drinks and a variety of crafts and toys.

There is no charge but you are welcome to make a donation if you would like to. Please see Church Calendar and Latest News for dates.

Afternoon Tea

We have a number of Afternoon Tea events through the year mainly for people who are enjoying retirement. Enjoy a selection of sandwiches, home baked cakes, scones and tea all served using our pretty vintage china tea sets. With gentle music in the background and friends to chat to what better way to while away an afternoon.

Croxley Parish Nurse - Churches in Croxley Green CIO

Churches in Croxley Green CIO is the charitable arm of Churches Together in Croxley Green. It is a registered charity which seeks to support people in the Croxley Green community towards Whole Person Healthcare through this Parish Nurse project. This service is available to anyone living or staying in Croxley Green, Hertfordshire, regardless of faith or no faith, age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability. A selection and prioritisation policy assists the Parish Nurse to manage the workload effectively and efficiently.

Parish Nursing is an established mechanism by which Christians have demonstrated the love of Jesus by providing holistic care to people in need, regardless of background.

Parish Nurses are able to:
• offer a confidential* space for conversation;
• promote health by encouraging everyone (whether they have a faith or not) towards healthy lifestyles;
• visit and spend time listening to people, giving informed reassurance where necessary;
• liaise with GP surgeries and staff (where consent is given to do so); help people to understand their medications/treatments;
• signpost towards appropriate agencies/support groups.
And yes, we will pray with someone if we are asked to do so
• Parish Nurses do not: preach or convert, charge for their services, put pressure on anyone to change their religion or join a particular church; give medical treatments or direct nursing care (e.g dressings, injections); replace NHS or other health services.
*We will only share with statutory agencies if we believe someone to be at risk of harm.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello

Whether you've just moved to the area, have lived here all your life or are just visiting, we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about All Saints’Church, Croxley Green. We would love to see you!

What facilities are available at the church to enable access for all?
♦ We have temporary ramps available on request for step free access; however, we are looking to
improve access for those with mobility challenges.
♦ There is a loop system for those using a hearing aid.
♦ Our church hall opposite has toilets; one of which is a disabled toilet with changing facilities for
babies.
♦ There is street parking available around the church.
♦ Large print copies of the service booklet and hymn books are available.
♦ Our Sunday service is also shown on a large screen.
♦ Some services are available on our facebook page.

What should I wear?
Come as you are, wear whatever you feel comfortable wearing; whether it’s jeans or your Sunday best.

What will happen when you arrive?
You will be welcomed and given everything you need for the service. We always aim to start on time but don’t worry if you arrive late.

What will happen during the service?
Some services are more formal than others (see below), but generally they will include hymns and/or worship songs, prayers, Bible readings and a talk. During a service of Holy Communion you will be invited to go forward for Communion or a personal blessing should you wish.

What about children?
Although we do not have a Sunday school, we feel children enhance our intergenerational worship through their openness and engagement with God; therefore they are welcome at all our services. There is also a selection of toys and activities available for them.

What about money?
The church is completely reliant on donations to cover its running costs and so a collection is taken during our services, where cash or card donations can be made if you wish.

What happens after the service?
There are refreshments available after our Sunday main service. We would love you to join us so we can get to know each other better.
