Maidstone

A message from Captains Marion and Jonathan Rouffet

Following a meeting of the senior leadership of The Salvation Army UKI the decision has been made to stop all public meetings and Sunday worship services with immediate effect. We know that this decision has not been taken lightly but is the right decision at this time. We recognise that this will come as a disappointment to many of you, so over the coming days we will be exploring creative ways to continue our mission to God’s people. To facilitate this we’ll be at the hall most days if people want to contact us via telephone, e-mail or social media via our Facebook page

Our food bank continues to operate on a Wednesday from 10.00am-12pm and Friday from 1.15pm-3.15pm.
