| Celebrate with us as we come of age! We set up the Society of Mary and Martha as a charity in 1987. Things had started 5 years earlier with just £200 as we began trading to raise money to begin this ministry. After a major 6 month appeal in 1991 we were able to buy the Sheldon Centre. We have been continuing to grow and learn as we develop the core vision of caring for people in Christian ministry. |

birthday year and begin the new liturgical year. |

Effectively an extended 21st birthday party, including
as many activities as we can think up to make sure
everyone enjoys the celebrations! Sheldon holds
a special place in the hearts of many people, and
there will be something for everyone. So whether

Christian or struggle with any notion of faith, please
come and join us.
