“Ye Olde Church Tea Shoppe” 
All Saints Church is open again every Sunday afternoon for Cream Teas until Sunday 6th September.Join us for afternoon tea with home cooked scones and cakes. Served in Church from 2.30 to 4.30 pm. We hope that on some Sundays there will be some music or light entertainment, and please, take the opportunity of looking at the newly refurbished St. George's Chapel. We would welcome volunteers to help Sunday by Sunday. The church kitchen is a delight to work in and those serving teas last year enjoyed the afternoon, finding it a good opportunity to welcome visitors into the church, having a chat with friends old and new and raising some much needed funds for the upkeep of our beautiful Parish Church. Everything other than scones are provided for you and if you feel able to help in this way contact Val Wallis on (01580) 891390. If you feel unable to help in serving do help by coming with your family, friends and neighbours and eating the teas that are produced.  How do you stay in touch with absent friends? On the 4th March 2009, All Saints Staplehurst PCC agreed 'that it wishes details of the church and its services to be listed on the Changing Attitude web site as a congregation which is open and welcoming to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people'. Re-ordering of St George's Chapel Project13th April UpdateThe re-ordering of the village war memorial chapel of St. George, in the Parish Church, is now almost complete. The plans were to make the chapel a more welcoming sacred space with increased flexibility for its use. The project had a favourable response from both the Royal British Legion and church members; it was dedicated as the village war memorial in June 1921.  Photo and Text Courtesy of Ron HegartyThe chapel is in constant use for daily morning and evening prayer, for the mid-week Eucharist celebrations, meditations and vigils. The cost of the refurbishment has been met in part by legacies and donations - and even £1000 prize money received from a national competition by All Saints Ringers when they celebrated St. George's Day in an unusual place, in the bell chamber. Pews have been removed, the floor levelled and carpeted, separate heating and chairs have been accommodated. It is intended to renew lighting in the chapel as part of an overall scheme for the church.
