Community

St Raphael’s Centre was blessed on Sunday 3rd October 2004 during our celebration of the 160th anniversary of the consecration of St Michael’s Church, Wood Green. The Centre was built primarily to provide accommodation for our Sunday School, but also as a Centre for outreach in the community.

Our weekly Drop-In session which meets at St Raphael’s Centre, next to the church, is on Wednesdays between 10am and 2pm offering food, drink and conversation whilst raising money for a number of charities.

The Drop-In was opened to welcome anyone who:

• would welcome some company and friendship, or who simply has a few spare moments and would like to come for a chat and a cup of tea or coffee
• may need a confidential and/or sympathetic ear
• would like to become part of a friendly group who enjoy a few hours together each week
• needs general advice about issues such as homelessness, various kinds of addiction and other particular needs
• would like to know more about what being a Christian means
• Whatever reason brings you, a very warm welcome awaits.
