We want to see men grow in their love and knowledge of Christ, and build meaningful connections with others.
That’s why we run a number of men’s events and groups throughout the year—some focused on Bible teaching, others simply to enjoy time together.
Breakfasts
At the start of every term, we gather for a cooked breakfast, relaxed conversation, and a short talk from a guest speaker.
Our next breakfast is: 13 September
Men’s Weekend
Each year, we head away together for a weekend of Bible teaching, rest, and time with others. A great chance to deepen friendships and faith.
Our next weekend: 3–5 October
Reading Group
This group meets every other Saturday morning, 8.45–10.30am in the St Mary’s Annexe. We discuss a Christian book over coffee and pastries—easy-going and thought-provoking.
To find out more, contact Mike Stevenson.
Football
Fancy a kickaround? Join others on Saturdays, 9–10am at Everest Community College (September to May).
- Ages 14 and up
- All abilities welcome
- First week is free
- After that: £5 per session (£2 for non-working)

Cricket
A number of the St Mary’s church family play for St Mary’s Cricket Club, part of the Hampshire Cricket League.
They play matches throughout the summer—and even win some!
