Pauline Matondo 

 

I am a lay pastor and a local preacher, a role I've been blessed to serve in since 2019. Our church is a vibrant and diverse community, something I deeply appreciate and love about our congregation.

 
Having lived in Bracknell for over 20 years, this town holds a special place in my heart. I’m blessed with two wonderful daughters who have both completed their university studies and are now thriving in their careers.
 
Our church is a welcoming space for everyone, and I look forward to connecting with you, whether you're a long-time member or a first-time visitor.

We pray for the aid workers that were tragically killed this recently, and for their friends and families and they grieve. We pray for Ukraine, and for everyone that has had to leave their homes due to the war with Russia.
 
Thank you for all the wonderful places in our country where we can go on holiday, especially the beaches. Thank you for all the fun things to do, like sports and clubs. Thank you for the parks where we can play with our friends.
 
Thank you for school holidays. We pray that everyone is having a nice time with their families. We pray for teachers and all school staff. May the school holidays provide an opportunity to rest and recharge ready for thestart of the new term.
 
We pray for all the young people that are using this time to revise for upcoming exams. May they trust in you at this time and may your love give them strength and confidence.
 
We pray for those that are sick and ask you to help them get better.
