For those of you unable to come to the church through illness or infirmity, we are pleased to bring Holy Communion out to your home and / or to visit. We firmly believe that ministry is from all and to all, taking place both in the building and outside in the community.


Guidance received today from the Diocese recommends the use of face coverings in church, see following quotation:

We strongly advise that face coverings should be worn by all those attending a place of worship, including ministers, worshippers, staff, volunteers, contractors and visitors, where there may be other people present; remembering that they are mainly intended to protect other people, not the wearer, from coronavirus COVID-19 and that they are not a replacement for physical distancing and regular hand washing

Please do bring a face covering to church. 

--------------------------------------

 Changes to services will be listed in the Notice Sheet as well as our Facebook page

 Other services through the year

Services at Christmas and Easter are listed separately on the web site as every year we hold different services and events to mark these special times for Christians

Our Patronal Festival is held on the last Sunday of September.

We also hold special memorial services for those who have been bereaved, when families and friends are invited to join us. These are usually twice a year, you can find out from the notice sheet or calendar page

Our Harvest celebrations are generally on the first Sunday of October.  An auction of produce is held after the 9.30 Parish Communion followed by an excellent lunch in church.

Remembrance Sunday service is held at 10.45 a.m. with silence being observed at 11.00 a.m.
