The parish runs the Farnham Poetry Competition on behalf of the Farnham Literary Festival. The entries are now all in and the winners will be announced at the awards evening and open mic on Saturday, March 15th, at St Mark’s Church, starting at 5pm. Coral Rumble and Linda Daruvala, the two judges will present prizes and also read from their own works.


The 16s-and-under awards will be presented first, and young people will have a chance to share their poetry if they wish. Then there will be an interval so that if any of the families need to go home, they can. The over-16s awards will be presented after the interval, and there will be an open mic.


All welcome to attend, to hear the poetry and to join in the open mic.

Welcome to March, to Spring, to Lent.

We are entering a busy, hopefully warmer, time of year in the church calendar. This month, Lent begins and with that our preparations for Easter. Many of us use this time to reflect on our relationship with our loving God and seek to draw nearer to God through prayer, meditation and study. Joining a Lent group can help with this and there are several in the parish – see inside the magazine for further details.

Inside you will also find news and details of events such as the Farnham Poetry Competition Awards Evening and Open Mic, Draw Farnham at St Mark’s, our Easter Craft Market and Easter egg hunt, Top 10 Hymns/Worship Songs and much more.

Please do have a look inside, and don’t forget our advertisers. Check them out and if you use them, don’t forget to tell them where you saw their advert. They help us by placing their ads with us so we want to help them.
