Christians Together in Brewood and Bishops Wood Do you know of anyone in our community who might appreciate a visit - perhaps because they are lonely, bereaved, housebound, suffering from serious illness, new to the area or have special needs? Our group seeks to widen the help we, as Christians, can give pastorally to those in need in our community. We act with the support of the four churches and visit on behalf of the priests and ministers. We listen and observe strict confidentiality. If you know of some one in need please pass the details to Celia Haes (01785 840624)or to your own church priest or minister.
