Our beautifully kept church building dating from the 12th Century, is open everyday for prayer and quiet. Our congregation welcomes all ages to worship. We are moderate catholic in our worship style which is Eucharistically based with modern language. There is a robed choir and a group of altar servers and an enthusiastic team who ring our eight bells. Members of the church are involved with the Intercessions and the Readings, and the administration of the Holy Communion. A Sunday school/children's Church meets at the same time as the main service(10.30am)in the schoolroom in the churchyard. We use hymns A&M and Mission Praise in our worship. Our mission statement is that "together we may grow in grace and in the knowledge and love of our Lord Jesus Christ" We would love you to join us. We welcome wedding couples and the baptism of children as well as adults. Confirmation preparation takes place on a regular basis.
