On Sunday 15 June 2008, after over thgirty years
of preparation, the churches in Knebworth (St Martin's, St Mary's, Trinity
and St Thomas More) sgned a covenant at a service at St Martin's.
The word
‘covenant’ literally means to come together and that is exactly what the
three churches in Knebworth have decided to do.
The four
congregations will continue to worship in their own churches on a regular
basis but all four congregations will now look increasingly for ways in
which they can work together to take the Christian message to the people of
Knebworth.
Working
under the banner of the Knebworth Family of Churches (KFC), the
churches have already launched such events as the Good Egg Club (for
children in the holidays), study groups and the Good Neighbour Scheme, which
provides practical assistance to people in need.
