Wii Night

BBQ food is not renowned for its slimming qualities so what better than to eat loads and then work off the calories with a Wii session or two. That’s exactly what we did in June on a lovely balmy night at Sweyne Park School. Loads to eat and drink, then a few rounds of MarioKart and Just Dance was the order of the day for all who attended.

Christening – June ‘10

We had the privilege to christen one of our recently born children in June. Its a wonderful moment to officially welcome a child into God’s family here at Rayleigh Vineyard. To pray for her and to look out for her and to promise to encourage her for the rest of her life is an awesome privilege and honour and responsibility. We look forward to the days and years ahead watching one with such potential grow in body and spirit and likeness to Jesus!

Chelmsford Vineyard

Rayleigh Vineyard has started a new vineyard in Chelmsford! We are very excited that Graham and Libby Woodward from Great Baddow have started a new weekly group with a view to grow into a church in its own right.

Graham & Libby say, We are so excited to be part of what God is doing in Chelmsford. We’ve lived here for several years, and can’t wait to see what God will do through his Church here.

We invite people to come to along as they are. We dress normally, we talk normally, we worship together, we study His Word and we pray together. We simply try and make an environment where normal people can meet with God in an accessible way without any hype.

Everyone is welcome regardless of what you believe, how you’ve been raised or what you’ve done.

We look forward to meeting you some time soon.
