    Welcome

    Welcome to the website for the Dereham and District Team Ministry. We are a group of very friendly churches serving the market town of Dereham and surrounding villages in the heart of Norfolk. Please take a moment to navigate around the website. News and Recent events are now accessible via the Header bar. We have resources for you to pray with us and would love to welcome you to join with us in worship.

     Please do make use of the 'Prayer Resources' section.

    As we come through this worrying time we will be anxious for ourselves, our loved ones and our world, but we remember that God is faithful, a very present help in time of trouble. Our Christian faith gives us confidence that in Jesus, 'We have this hope, a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul' (Hebrews 6: 19). And so, as we journey through this time, we encourage you to rest in the knowledge and love of God, trusting that he is with us, loves us and holds us fast.

     

    A prayer for all those affected by the Coronavirus

    Keep us, good Lord, under the shadow of your mercy.

    Support and sustain the anxious; be with those who care for the sick, and lift up all who are brought low;

    that we may find comfort knowing that nothing can separate us from your love in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

     

    For all enquiries please get in touch. Our details are in the 'Contact Us' section.
