Client Brief workshops

Back in September we appointed Page\Park architects and together we’re making progress in agreeing the Client Brief, a document detailing St Mungo’s vision for a new building. Client Brief workshops took place in late October and over 120 church family members were involved, each helping to shape a building that truly reflects St Mungo’s hopes for the future. The word cloud below shows some of the responses from those who attended the Client Brief workshops when asked “How do you want the new building to feel?”.

Word cloud art with various words in navy blue, green and purple text. Words are various sizes and largest text says ‘welcoming’ and ‘with God’. Some other words include ‘safe’, ‘holy’, ‘warm’, and ‘accessible’.

Covering The Gateway Project in prayer

The Gateway Project is an opportunity for our church to grow and flourish. In early October, over 60 people attended the project’s first corporate prayer meeting and it was an exciting time of prayer, listening and hearing from God. The Project Team continues to receive words and pictures from people as they have fasted and prayed, such an encouragement to everyone involved in moving the project forward. Our next corporate prayer event for The Gateway Project is Monday 3rd February so save the date.
