Welcome to Clifton, Haynes and Southill Benefice. We are a group of friendly churches which were formed on 1st September 2021. We are four rural churches in Bedfordshire.
The Parish churches are All Saints Church Clifton which also holds a monthly Messy church in Clifton's Church Hall on the 4th Sunday. St. Mary’s Haynes church also has a Mission Hall at Haynes where we hold monthly services of Holy Communion and a Café church.
All Saint’s Church Southill, is the resting place of Admiral Byng who was martyred in 1757. The three parishes are in the Shefford and Ampthill Deanery under the Patronage of the Bishop of St Albans, our worship stands in the broadest tradition of the Anglican Church.
If you join us at any of our services you will receive a warm welcome and all services finish with refreshments!
