During the past week, we are not sure when as it is open on a daily basis from morning to early afternoon, our beautiful Church was robbed.
The brass ornate pulpit rails were removed from the stone stairs, a hanging candelabra in the sanctuary, fortunately one was left, and two silver plate flower vases were stolen. Likewise, probably the water from the vases was strewn over the altar kneeling cushions leaving them badly marked. If you know anything about this incident would be please contact:
Kent Police 01622 690690 Incident Ref: 17-0575
You may query why the Church is left open each day. It is the policy of the PCC and Rochester Diocese that our Church is an open door to anyone and everyone. It was founded over 100 years ago as “The Little House of Goodwill” and it remains so to this day. Its interior decorations are considered, by academic Art Historians, to be a great example of the Arts and Crafts movement, founded by William Morris. All were gifts by generous residents of Four Elms Village and we are saddened that such a robbery has occurred, the first to our knowledge, at this time.
We continue to welcome all who wish to enter our beautiful Church and while “things” may have been stolen the heart of the Church is in good repair.

Sevenoaks District Council’s popular Family Fun Days return with four weeks of free fun and games over school summer break. They include arts, crafts, competitions, and sports and are aimed at children aged 12 and under, but they may not be suitable for very young children.
No booking is necessary as families can simply turn up and have fun, however children must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times.
This year, Millwall Community Trust have teamed up with Kellogg’s to offer free football sessions at eight of the fun days for girls and boys aged 5 to 12. These must be booked in advance and claimed using a Kellogg’s promotional code, found on their boxes.
Residents are encouraged to bring waterproofs and sunscreen. Refreshments can be purchased at some locations.
The days are subject to the weather, so residents are advised to keep an eye on the Council’s website www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/familyfundays or its Facebook and X accounts before setting off.
Cllr Lesley Dyball, the Council’s Cabinet Member for People and Places, says:
“Our free Family Fun Days are perfect for children under 12 to try new things, socialise and be creative in a fun, safe environment.
“Having the Millwall Community Trust and Kellogg’s football sessions at certain events will make this year’s fun days better than ever. If the weather’s nice, bring along a picnic and make a day of it.”
The days are funded and organised by Sevenoaks District Council, run by Play Place and supported by town and parish councils who are providing the venues.
