5th Sunday of the month

We join with our sister church families for Holy Communion, rotating between the church buildings.  When the service is at St Mary’s, we start at 11:00am.  Check the notice sheets for more information.

THURSDAY SERVICES

Our midweek service starts at 10:00am.  Usually, this is a spoken service of Holy Communion with time for quiet reflection and a talk based on the Bible.  From time to time, this is replaced by Morning Prayer.  Either way, the service lasts approximately 45 minutes.  We invite you to stay for tea or coffee and a chat afterwards.

SATURDAY COFFEE MORNINGS

On the first Saturday of most months, we host a coffee morning between 10am and 12noon for our church family, friends and supporters.  There’s usually a good supply of cake, plus other items to peruse and buy.  It’s a great chance to get to know other members of the church family and all are welcome.

CHURCHYARD

Dogs are welcome in our churchyard, but please clean up after them so that we can maintain the churchyard as a fitting resting place for those buried their and do our best to serve those who grieve. Thank you!
