Urgent Appeal to Support Christ Church Walmsley After Boiler Flood Cancels Services
Christ Church Walmsley, our much-loved village church in the centre of Egerton, is facing an urgent challenge after a leaking pipe flooded the boiler house leaving the building without heating. Due to freezing temperatures, all Sunday services had to be cancelled.
While services are back up and running for now, we still urgently need to raise funds to replace the boiler. The boiler, which has served the church for around 20 years, cannot be repaired because replacement parts are unavailable. A full replacement is urgently needed, and the cost is significant. Previous fundraising efforts have already been used for essential roof repairs, leaving parish funds critically low.
Our Church
Christ Church Walmsley is a cherished place of worship at the heart of the community, hosting regular services for all ages, including many children and families. Most local people will have attended the building weddings, baptisms, funerals, and school services – it is a cornerstone of village life and a historic building that the community treasures.
If you can, please consider contributing to keeping our church warm and welcoming for years to come. We appreciate every donation. If you can share our appeal, this helps us to reach more people
