TOGETHER STRONGER
2016 was a summer of sport. The dust has now
settled on the Euros and the Olympics. There
were a total 130 members of TeamGB returning
from Rio with a medal and with contributions to
the medal tally from across 20 different sports.
Certainly this was a team effort, and a team of
real diversity!
The Euros was a different storyunless you are
Welsh! Whether or not you usually get behind
Wales in international competitions, there
was no doubting their inspirational journey
to the semi-finals. The motto of the team was
Together Stronger. There was even a slightly
dodgy tournament anthem (as most tournament
songs tend to be) to go with this motto,
performed by the Manic Street Preachers. Their
success (Wales, not the Manic Street Preachers)
came from the belief that the team standing
together as one is stronger than individuals out
on their own.

This is what we want to explore and celebrate

in this issue of our St. Johns magazine; not
in relation to TeamGB or Wales, but for the
Christian churches in
this place.
Inside youll find articles about the local
Churches Together initiatives as we work
together in ways that we hope are making a
difference in some small part in this community.
There is information about our small groups at
St. Johns as we seek to do life together, with
one another. And you can see how the Together
Stronger idea was the Bibles picture of the
church from day one as we dig into its teaching
on diversity with unity and what it means to be
one body but many parts.

Welcome

WELCOME TO OUR NEW

MINISTRY APPRENTICE
Elliot Grove is the new
Ministry Apprentice at
St. Johns. We caught up
with him to find out a bit
about him.
ELLIOT, TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOUR FAMILY AND WHERE
YOURE FROM?
I grew up in Chandlers Ford in Hampshire. Its a small town
near Southampton. Im from a family of four. Theres my Mum
(Fiona), Dad (Andrew) and older brother (Philip) who now lives
in London with his wife Emma.
WHAT ARE YOUR PASSIONS IN LIFE?
Definitely science! I took an interest in it almost as soon as I
started school. It had a big impact on my faith, particularly as I got
older. I like to think that understanding a little of how the world
is put together helps me to appreciate God better. Ive always
loved music too, particularly rock (thanks to my Dads influence)
as well as folk and blues. Ive played the guitar since I was 8
although Im no Hendrix! Im a big fan of Sci-fi and could quite
happily spend a whole day reading fantasy novels!

HOW LONG HAVE BEEN A CHRISTIAN?

I grew up in a Christian home, so its hard to pin-point an
exact moment. My confirmation at age 13 was my first public
declaration of faith, so I could say Ive been a Christian for at least
10 years. Probably longer!
WHY IS GOD SUCH A BIG PART OF YOUR LIFE?
One of the great things about growing up in the church is that
Ive never known what its like to not have God in my life. He is
a constant source of comfort and guidance, particularly when
times get tough. The fact that Jesus was willing to die for our sin
shows that he clearly loves us and wants whats best for us. Why
wouldnt I want to follow a God who cares that much for me?
Thanks, Elliot all of that is great to hear about! Were all looking
forward to getting to know you as you join us here at the church.
Just a couple of final questions
IF YOU WENT TO THE
OLYMPICS, WHAT SPORT
WOULD YOU COMPETE IN?
Taekwondo. I took it up when I
was 13 and absolutely love it. Its
also the only sport Im any good
at! Watching it in Rio has inspired
me to find another club now Ive
moved here.
IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE
IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD
YOU CHOOSE?
Theres so many amazing places,
its hard to choose! After I left uni I spent a couple of weeks in
Moldova working with a missionary charity. So maybe there?
IF YOU COULD DO ANY JOB, WHAT WOULD IT BE (APART
FROM BEING OUR MINISTRY APPRENTICE, OF COURSE)?

YOU GRADUATED IN BIOLOGY FROM ROYAL HOLLOWAY IN

2014. WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING SINCE?
Right after graduating, I started training to be a science teacher.
To be honest, I struggled with the demands of it all from quite
early on, but stuck at it for 6 months. Eventually I was told to
take some time away, and at that point another job opportunity
immediately presented itself! The job was with a youth ministry
charity called PSALMS and Ive been there for the past year
and Im still slightly blown away by how God brought such an
incredible opportunity out of what had been a very difficult year.
AFTER THE FALSE START WITH TEACHING, DO YOU NOW
KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO DO?
Its a bit tricky to say at the moment. Since last year, Ive felt called
to ordained ministry and Im currently trying to figure out Gods
will around that. Hopefully by next year Ill have a better idea
about what his purpose is for me.
YOUVE HAD QUITE A BUSY SUMMER TELL US A BIT ABOUT
WHAT YOUVE BEEN UP TO?
PSALMS ran a youth camp on the first week of the summer
holidays. We took around 50 young people to an activity centre
for a week. A lot of fun, not much sleep and amazing to see a few
of the kids give their lives to Jesus. It was a great way to end what
had been an amazing year! I went from there to New Wine where
I worked on the stewarding team, before moving on to another
youth camp in the Forest of Dean.

Id like to travel and meet lots of peoplewhich could include

any number of jobs! Ive noticed that the best things Ive done
have come from taking unexpected opportunities.
IF YOU COULD CHOOSE ANYTHING AT ALL, WHAT WOULD
YOUR TOP 3 MEALS BE?
Sunday roast would definitely be number 1. I also love a good
curry. And actually, apple crumble probably beats them both.
Can I skip the main course and go straight to dessert?!
And that final question leads nicely into saying, please do
make Elliot feel welcome and what better way than to invite
him round for a cuppa or an apple-crumble-dinner!

Felbridge Youth Group

Six months ago we became aware there was a real need for a
group for young people at this end of town. After an exciting start
back in March, were taking things forward with this once again
for 2016/7.
Anyone in years 6-13 can come and join in on Sundays from
5:30 7:30pm.

Theres usually lots of food and loads of games, plus discussions

about the Bible and the chance to make new friends.
Also, if youre musically-talented (or even if youre not) and
interested in joining the youth band, please get in touch with
Elliot via our church office.

Connected Church:
An update from CAMBODIA
Earlier this year we explained
that World Relief Cambodia is
now our linked partner through
Tearfund. We have become a
Connected Church with this
mission project.

Srey Lin, courtesy World Relief Cambodia

Their agricultural workshops

are enabling families to grow
their own food and education
projects are helping them to
understand the dangers of
trafficking, keeping their children
safe. Through their childrens
programme, which reaches
20,000 children throughout five
provinces, children like Srey Lin
are taught lessons from the Bible
about topics such as friendship
and forgiveness. This has
helped her to deal with difficult
relationships at school.
There have been lots of
positive changes in recent
years: enrolment in school has
increased and almost as many
girls as boys are enrolling, BUT
only half of all Cambodians have
access to safe drinking water,

and less than a quarter have

access to a toilet. World Relief
is working to provide solutions
to these issues. Please pray that
their childrens programme will
flourish and lead to a generation
filled with love and self-respect.

STREET PASTORS

THE STREET PASTORS TEAM IS MADE UP OF STREET PASTORS

AND PRAYER PASTORS. WE ARE TRAINED VOLUNTEERS FROM
A MIX OF CHURCHES IN EAST GRINSTEAD.

The Street Pastors provide a caring presence

in East Grinstead town centre each Saturday
night from 9pm to 3am and engage with
people with a listening ear for those who
wouldnt know to whom to turn while also
helping people to enjoy themselves safely.
We are trained in basic first aid and give out
bottles of water for those who need sobering
up and lollipops as a little sugar boost. We
also provide flip flops for girls who arent able
to walk on their high heels any longer as well
as space blankets for those in need. Apart
from that, we clear glass bottles and broken
glass from the streets in order to prevent
injury and discourage violence.
We aim to maintain peace in the town centre
and have found that on occasion just being
present has meant were discouraging antisocial behaviour and vandalism to shops,
businesses and private property in East
Grinstead.
The police, who asked Churches Together
to build a team of Street Pastors in East
Grinstead, say that their focus is on
professional service, leaving space for

Street Pastors to comfort or wait with

distressed people while family help, a taxi or
an ambulance is on the way.
The Prayer Pastors are invaluable in their
support to the Street Pastors. Based at West
Street Baptist Church, they are praying for
Gods help in any situations that arise while
the Street Pastors are out on the streets.
One Street Pastor, Cybele Packham, recounts
her evening on the streets:
This particular evening was a quiet night. We
regularly patrolled a bridge where accidents
have happened in the past to help guard
against further incidents, we met an older
gentleman out late with his dog who needed
someone to talk to, and five teenagers
hanging out in the park. We drew alongside
a young woman out on her own in the early
hours of the morning sitting alone on a wall
to make sure she was safe and able to get
home. And someone even approached us
about joining the Street Pastors: a man who
was previously one of the door staff at one of
the bars in town.

JUSTICE & PEACE

We are part of Churches Together and include
representatives from all the churches in the
town. Seeking to follow Jesuss example, we
do our best to meet the needs of the poor and
those who have been dispossessed by war,
famine or social injustice, wherever they may
be.
We work with international organisations
such as Fairtrade and Amnesty International
to address global concerns. We are involved
in national and local issues. We support
the Credit Union and the Foodbank and
help those who are currently homeless and
sleeping rough on the streets, particularly
by supporting the work of Crawley Open
House. We help refugees and asylum seekers
in our area through the Gatwick Detainees
Welfare group. We visit detainees at Tinsley
House and Brook House detention centres at
Gatwick Airport. We get involved with Prison
Fellowship at Lewes Prison.
Recent events have included encouraging our

CARE OFFERS PRACTICAL HELP TO
PEOPLE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY WHO
HAVE PARTICULAR NEEDS.
People living in the East Grinstead, Lingfield
and Dormansland area can telephone the
CARE number (410086) and ask for help.
This might be for a driver to take them to a
doctors appointment or to the hospital, or
to help with shopping, gardening and other
practical work. Requests are assessed and
volunteer help is offered.
The volunteer help comes mainly from
members of local churches who offer
their services, such as driving, duty officer/
manning the telephone, shopping and other
practical help and jobs.
There are no fixed premises nor paid
employees but all costs are covered by
donations. Drivers use their own vehicle to
transport clients. Duty officers are based in
their own homes, and on their duty day they
receive phone requests for help from clients
and arrange for help to be provided where
possible.

EAST GRINSTEAD FOODBANK

EGFB IS A CHRISTIAN CHARITY
AND IS ONE OF THE NETWORK OF
424 FOODBANKS ESTABLISHED IN
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE TRUSSELL
TRUST (WWW.TRUSSELLTRUST.ORG)
WHICH WORKS WITH CHURCHES AND
COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE UK
TO SET UP FOODBANKS.
We provide a minimum of three days
emergency food and support to people
experiencing crisis in East Grinstead and the
surrounding area; and this food supply can
be repeated twice more in any period of six
months. After the maximum of nine days of
our crisis support the UK Benefits System
is expected to be functioning to continue
to provide assistance in the longer term if
necessary.
We began operating in December 2012 in
the Trinity Methodist Church Caf and later
moved to the Jubilee Community Centre
in Charlwoods Road - our main distribution
centre - which is open for two hours on three
separate days each week. This year we started
a satellite distribution centre in Lingfields
Community Centre on two days a month, and
from September it will be open every Friday
for two hours.
We do not make any assessments of a
clients needs - that is done by social workers,
GPs, head teachers and church leaders.
If someone they know needs emergency
help, they can provide a foodbank voucher.
When the client comes to the foodbanks
distribution centre we exchange the voucher
for a parcel of food (and other necessities
such as toiletries, hygiene products etc.). The
size of the parcel depends on the number of
adults and children in the clients household.
We dont just hand out food. We are a
listening ear if a client wants to share their
situation in confidence with us. We have
contact details of various help organisations
such as CAB and debt management so that
the client can find assistance to get them
through the crisis period. We can refer a

offer to pray for them. We have had a trial
period when a member of CAB has also been
available at JCC to advise our clients and this
has been much appreciated.
In total we have redeemed 1,400 vouchers
and provided 3-day food parcels for 1,940
adults and 1,038 children. On average this is
7 vouchers, feeding 10 adults and 5 children
every week. We have received 36 tonnes of
food (about 200kg per week) for distribution
to clients.
We rely on donations of food from the public.
There are a number of collection points in
churches, supermarkets, banks and doctors
surgeries. Also schools and other local
organisations donate food. As the food may
be stored in our warehouse for some time
before it is used it must be non-perishable
and have a long shelf life. We have a rigorous
date control system and any food that is
approaching its best-before date is given to
Crawley Open House for use straight away in
their kitchens.
Our work is directed by a board of six
volunteer trustees and the project is managed
by a steering team with six members. Each
two hour session in the distribution centre
requires four people drawn from a group of
over 50 volunteers. Other volunteers help
with publicity, promotion and fund raising.

ONE BODY, MANY PARTS

1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-27 (NIV)

12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many
parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all
baptised by one Spirit so as to form one body whether Jews or
Gentiles, slave or free and we were all given the one Spirit to
drink. 14 And so the body is not made up of one part but of many.

the body together, giving greater honour to the parts that lacked
it, 25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its
parts should have equal concern for each other. 26 If one part
suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honoured, every
part rejoices with it.

Now if the foot should say, Because I am not a hand, I do not

belong to the body, it would not for that reason stop being part
of the body.16 And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye,
I do not belong to the body, it would not for that reason stop
being part of the body. 17 If the whole body were an eye, where
would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear,
where would the sense of smell be? 18 But in fact God has placed
the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them
to be. 19 If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20 As
it is, there are many parts, but one body.

27

15

The eye cannot say to the hand, I dont need you! And
the head cannot say to the feet, I dont need you! 22 On the
contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker
are indispensable, 23 and the parts that we think are less
honourable we treat with special honour. And the parts that are
unpresentable are treated with special modesty, 24 while our
presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put
21

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part
of it.
CAN I ASK YOU TO HAVE A THINK FOR MOMENT:
What would you miss out on if you didnt go to church?
Maybe you dont go, and youre pretty sure that youre not
missing out on anything at all. Maybe you do and you know
youd miss a lot or perhaps you dont think youd miss much at all.
The passage from the Bible above shows us that actually this is
completely the wrong question to ask.
SO HOW ABOUT THIS ONE:
What will others miss out on if I dont go to church?
I love the picture that 1 Corinthians 12 gives us of the church. The
idea of calling a group of people a body was as common then
as it is now, yet these verses give real meaning to this idea.

A BODY HAS A HEAD

The head of this body, the
church, is Jesus himself. This
means we belong to him, he
is the leader of the church
and he directs us. Jesus calls
the shots. So when he said,
Go and make disciples of
all nations, baptising them in
the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded
you, this forms the basis of
our mission. And when he said, Love the Lord your God with all
your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and
with all your mind and love your neighbour as yourself, we seek
to live this out as much as we can.

A BODY ALSO
HAS MANY
DIFFERENT PARTS

All the parts have different functions. We have the foot, the hand,
the ear, the eye, the nose in 1 Corinthians chapter 12, and even
those parts we treat with special modesty get a mention. The big
idea of this passage is that every part is needed and necessary
and vital for things to work well and effectively. If the whole body
was made up of just eyes or just ears, it would be very good at
seeing or hearing but utterly useless at everything else. Every
part of the body is needed, every part is a we-cant-do-it-withoutyou part.
How does that make you feel?
Do you believe that the church is missing something without
you and your unique contribution? God has made you with your
particular gifts, personality and passions and he wants you to play
the part that only you can play as a member of his church.
Maybe you feel like you have nothing to give. Well, theres no

room for the foot to say, I dont belong to the body. And theres
no room for the eye to say to the hand, I dont need you. Both
these statements are always untrue when spoken at church. Every
member belongs and every member needs every other member.
All of this puts a bit of a different spin on why I would be part of a
church. Its not about me and what I might get out of it, but about
others and what I can give as I play my part.
In his book, The Message of the Church, Chris Green writes:
Western cultures see dependence as immaturity, and maturity
as becoming independent Christians by contrast should see
maturity as interdependence.
Each of us is unique, but an interdependent part of the body of
Christ, the church.
How does this make a difference?
John F. Kennedy famously said in his inaugural address:
Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can
do for your country?
So next time youre wondering about whether or not to go to
church on a Sunday or a midweek group or whatever it might be,
dont think about what you may or may not get out of it but think
about the missed opportunities if youre not there for God to be
at work through you in the lives of others.
Maybe there is someone God wants you to draw alongside
and encourage
Maybe there is a new person to meet and you are just the right
person to make him or her feel welcome
Maybe there is someone God wants you to pray for
Maybe someone for you to listen to, or invite round for a cuppa
Maybe someone who needs to hear your story about how your
faith helped you in a particular situation
Maybe someone who needs practical help
Or maybe its an opportunity to serve others through one of
our volunteer teams at church
Whatever it is, we will be missing out, even incomplete,
without you!
I dont say any of this because Im concerned about there being
another person sat on another chair when we meet, but because
I believe that meeting together is a vital part of our life together.

I believe that we are together stronger.

Q: I dont need to go to church to be a Christian, do I?

This question is quite a common objection
to the things discussed in this article.
On one level, the answer is no, because
being a Christian is not about what we do,
but all about what God has done for us
in sending Jesus to live and die and rise
from the dead as our King. Faith in this
staggering act of love from a God who
wants you in his family is what it means to
be a Christian, not about any organisations
you are part of.
But then again, on another level, its
a pretty crazy thing to be a Christian
and not be a part of a local church. The
Bible describes becoming a Christian as
being adopted into a family, Gods family
(Galatians 4:5, Ephesians 1:15, Romans
8:15). I dont know if you have ever heard
of a situation where a child is adopted
into a new family but does not then go

Or to come at the question from a slightly

different angle, there are apparently 59
wonderful one another commands in the
Bible which teach us how we should relate
to one another and treat one another. It is
pretty hard to live these out at the best of
times, but virtually impossible if we do not
know one another and share our lives with
one another.
What are others missing out on if you
dont go to church?
and live with that family and is not in any
meaningful way living as a member of that
family?
The local church is not an organisation but
a family, a community, the body of Christ.
See what great love the Father has
lavished on us, that we should be called
children of God! And that is what we are!
(1 John 3:1)

Community cannot be separated from Christianity. Since the

very beginning small groups meeting in homes have been at the
heart of the Christian Faith. Doing life on your own seems to be a
less-than Biblical picture of the Christian life, and so at St. Johns
we want to provide space for that community to happen. Its so
important to how we function as people and how we grow as
Christians!
We seek to do this in all sorts of ways from our meetings on Sundays,
our church lunches, our groups for seniors or for children and young
people, or simply as we serve together in different ways and on
different teams.

Our home groups fit right in there with all this. We currently have 8
groups meeting in different homes on different days of the week,
some during the day and some in the evenings (the photos show the
leaders of the different groups). The age range of group members is
from age 23-92! There is no doubting the richness that comes from
different ages learning from one another.

Group meets on Tuesday

evenings in East Grinstead

Most groups involve food in one way or another, all groups involve
discussing the Bible together, the opportunity to be prayed for and to
pray for others, and to support each other
as we live our lives.

Why home groups?

Liz Wolley

Group meets on Monday

evenings in East Grinstead

Reason #1: They are a great way to connect to others. Larger groups
can be more difficult to feel connected to and this can sometimes be
the case at our services on a Sunday. Being
part of smaller groups helps meaningful friendships to form
more quickly.
Reason #2: They are a great way to learn about Jesus from the Bible.
There is something about sitting around with Bibles open on our laps,
bouncing thoughts around, teaching one another and discovering
the life-changing message of its pages for ourselves that enables
what we learn to stick with us and impact our lives.
Anyone is welcome to join one of our groups. Just get in touch and
let us know and well find the one that works best for you.

Cecilia, who has been a member of different home groups for about 30
years, writes: I have got to know so many people more closely. It is very
helpful to hear other members views and ideas and to feel free to ask
questions and join in the discussions. I go home feeling encouraged and
with lots to think about!
Tim has have been part of a home group at St. Johns for about a year (as
well as part of a group at his previous church). He writes: I find the groups
a great way of getting to know other Christians much better than is possible
on a Sunday morning. Its a good place to share problems and to pray for
each other, as well as having others know what you are going through and
asking how you are.
