Churches Together in Barnes
Unity Service

St Mary's Church
Sunday 29th January 2012 at 4pm

At this service the six Christian
churches in Barnes renew together
their commitment to the Ecumenical
Covenant to which they were all
signatories in January 1990.

The Ministers and parishioners of
those Churches re-confirm their pledge
to work together ‘to make visible the
unity of Christ’s people in Barnes’.

We do this by organising and
supporting united worship, joint study
programmes, and schemes to serve
our neighbours through social action.
