​Christ Church Crookham is the parish church of Church Crookham and Crookham Village and is situated on Gally Hill Road in the heart of the community. ​​​
Announcement
The Vicar of Crondall and Ewshot, as Patron, is delighted to announce that Rev. Matt Smith has been appointed as Vicar at Crookham, subject to DBS and medical clearance. He is currently Associate Vicar at Christ Church in Virginia Water and we are hoping that Matt and his family might be able to move during the summer, but details are yet to be confirmed.
Matt says:
I am thrilled to be called to serve God and grow His church in Crookham. My wife, Alice, and I are looking forward to joining you with our twin sons, Albert and Theo, and our black Labrador, Lyla. We’re excited for all the Lord has in store for this community as we faithfully pursue Jesus and journey into this new chapter together.
Please do hold us in your prayers as we prepare to move. Please pray for Alice as she starts a Consultant Anaesthetist job this summer and for the boys in all this transition.
The congregation at Christ Church Crookham is delighted that Matt will be coming to join us, and we pray for him and his family as they begin their preparations to move here. We look forward to an exciting new phase in the life of our church and wider community as Matt works with us to serve God and each other.

Prayer for the vacancy
God our Father, you have welcomed each one of us in Jesus and called us to be His body in this place:
​
Send your Holy Spirit at this time of uncertainty and change, to fill us with vision, energy, and faithfulness in prayer, that we may be true to our calling to bring new life to our community.
​
Give your heavenly wisdom to those who are to choose a new vicar for this parish, that she or he may be a wise and gentle shepherd of your people, ready to serve us with joy, to build us up in faith and to lead us by example in loving obedience to your Son, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
