Deal

Church

We are temporarily without a full time officer (minister). Lt Hannah Baker has left to take up her new appointment at Gillingham Salvation Army. A new officer is due to be appointed in September. In the meantime the church is being managed by local volunteers. Please bear in mind there may be a short delay in someone getting back to any enquiry.

Our Sunday and weekly programme remain unaffected.

Our Vision

Fullness of life for all with Jesus

Our Mission

To share the good news
To serve others without discrimination
To nurture disciples of Jesus
To care for creation

What is prayer?

In its simplest form, prayer is communication with God.

Prayer can take place in a group setting, such as a church service. It can also take place between one person and God. Anyone can talk to God. You can pray!

People can also pray on behalf of others.

If you would like to know more about prayer, please get in touch with us.

If you would like to pray with somebody, please get in touch.

If you would like us to pray for you, please get in touch.

Every month we hold a prayer walk along Deal Seafront. We usually meet on the 1st Thursday of the month. We meet at the Cafe on the Green, on Walmer Green, next to the Lifeboat Station. We meet at 9.30am, walk to Deal Pier, usually have something to drink and then walk back to Walmer Green. We usually finish approximately 10.45.

The bible is a remarkable collection of ancient writings made up of different books and letters.

The bible is a story of the relationship between God and people, between God and you.

It can be a daunting book if you try to read it all at once. Most people find it more achievable to read parts of it at a time.

If you would like to learn more about the bible, please get in touch with us.

If you don't have a bible and would like one, please let us know.

If you would like a copy of an individual book of the bible, please also let us know.

Free Bibles - Luke — We currently have a supply of Luke's gospel. If you would like a free copy, please get in touch.

10:30am Sunday Worship - our Sunday morning worship meeting starts at 10.30am (our hall is open from 10am). Our meeting lasts between 1 and 1 1/2 hours and is followed by tea, coffee and biscuits.

10.30am Sunday School - our Sunday School starts with the children being in our worship meeting and then leave for Sunday School in our lower hall.

Wednesdays

Our Deal Family Dinner (formally known as our 'Drop In') is now open every Wednesday from 3.30pm to 6pm.

We provide a free meal, drinks and opportunity to chat. Everyone is welcome.

We usually post each week on our Facebook page what our menu for the current week will be, so please visit our Facebook page for more details - search 'The Salvation Army - Deal'

We hold a Bible Study every Wednesday between 7pm & 8.30pm.

We are a friendly group who come together to learn more about the bible.

We don't claim to have all the answers, but seek to learn together.

Everyone is welcome, whether you know the bible very well or have never read it before.

We hold our Coffee Morning every Friday in our lower hall between 10.30am and 12.30pm.

Tea and Coffee cost only 50p and there are complementary biscuits.

Each week there may be other light snacks available for sale - e.g. toast, crumpets, sandwiches.

Everyone is welcome.

We do not have a permanent Charity Shop in Deal. However, we hold a series of 'Pop Up' Charity Shop events at our hall in West Street.

In recent years we have held monthly pop up shops. This year we are planning to hold a smaller number of pop up shops, but they will be bigger, using both our halls and include refreshments and cakes.

Our next Pop Up Charity Shop will be held on Saturday 18th April from 10am to 1pm.

Deal Pop Up Shop — Our Next Pop Up Shop takes place on Saturday 25th July

We have very limited storage space at our halls, and are therefore limited to the amount of donations we can accept.

We are currently accepting donations of women's and children's clothes.
We are not able to take donations of furniture or larger items.

What happens to your donations?

We operate a 3 tier system:-

We will seek to match any donation with a person we know is currently in need of that item.
We will put the item into our Pop Up Charity Shop, which we hold monthly.
If we do not have someone in need of the item, or it is not suitable for the Pop Up Shop, or has not sold in the Pop Up Shop then we have it collected by a recycling company for which we receive payment.

Therefore as far as possible your donation will benefit someone directly or by enabling us to raise funds for our community work. This system has resulted in us dramatically reducing the amount of material we throw away as rubbish. This helps us to meet one of our priorities of 'caring for God's creation.'

You can use one of the Salvation Army clothing banks if your prefer.

Salvation Army clothing banks are located at the following locations: -
