At the regular monthly CCWA meeting in June, Joanna Marriott gave some wonderful ideas and demonstrations about how to do arrange summer flowers from the garden in a contemporary, more naturalistic style, very favoured by modern brides, and even to some extent by her corporate clients. If you would like to come along to the next CCWA meeting it will be on Thursday 20th July and will feature Jenny and 'The Belles' for the summer concert - all parishioners welcome. (Jenny sings regularly with a small group of young people at the 11.30a.m. Mass.)

Christchurch Summer Fair - Come along and spend the afternoon with us in the Priory Garden (weather permitting)

My family and I have been attending Christ Church for many years. For us, the Church is a great family church, very welcoming with a good christian community. The parish priest Father John and all the other priests are approachable and very supportive

I love this Church! I started attending it 7 years ago. It is a big Church and you can feel a little intimidated because of that, but if you are brave and smile and chat everyone is welcoming. I am now a volunteer and I have met some fantastic people young and old. I feel valved and I am part of a great community.
