Building Transformation project
A TRANSFORMED SPACE FOR A GROWING CITY:
now IS THE TIME!
April 2020 Update:
Progress with the project continues and today, 23 April 2020, we have submitted our application for a Faculty to the Diocesan Registrar. A Faculty is the legal permission we must have before we can proceed any further. Please pray that our application will be processed as quickly as possible and that we will receive the permission we seek.
Here are links to the 3D concept of what St Mary's will look like, the inside of St Mary’s and all the plans and papers which make up the Faculty application. Please have a good look at both.
If you wish to object to any of the works or proposals you should send a letter, by email, stating the grounds of your objection to the Diocesan Registrar at: Ely.Registry@1thesanctuary.com so that it arrives by 25 May 2020.
Any letter of objection must include your name and address and state whether you live in the parish and/or your name is entered on the church electoral roll of the parish or any other basis on which you have an interest in the matter.

COnceptHere is a visual concept of what St Mary’s will look like once it has been transformed for the future. Take a look and imagine the extraordinary church and community events and programmes that we could host in such a transformed space for a growing city. We hope you will join us in investing your time, talents and money in this once-in-a-lifetime project. |
