Public Notice:

Church of St Nicholas / St Charalambous Greek Orthodox Church (formerly Holy Trinity, East Hyde)

The proposed amendment request is from the existing owner of the church, The Greek Orthodox Church (‘GOC’).  This northern piece of land was sold to the GOC in 2022 and it was for use as a carpark for the church and retained covenants for no developments or building on the land. The land to the south of the church was subsequently sold to GOC for a further carpark. The GOC now wishes to build on the rear north land carpark. As such a variation is required to the covenants on the land to enable development. The public notice can be viewed below.

Electoral Roll

What is the Electoral Roll?

It’s the membership list of the parish which is St Nicholas’, St Mary’s and All Saints’ churches. It’s a declaration of you belonging, being part of and committed to a particular church. Legally, it is the list of names and addresses of every person who can vote at a parish’s Annual Meeting (and any special or extra church meetings).

Who can be on it?

Any lay person (i.e. not ordained clergy) who is baptised and over 16 years old, provided they live in the parish or have worshipped at the church regularly for at least six months. It is possible to be on the Roll of more than one church, but in that case a choice must be made over which one church you wish to vote in.

How can I be more involved in the church?

For many people being on the Electoral Roll will be but a start of their involvement in the life of the church, helping them feel that they belong and part of the fellowship represented by God’s people in this place. There are many ways to support the week to week work of the church in Living God’s Love.
