St Leonard's is an Anglican church to the south of Telford town centre.
We are a church seeking to grow, seeking to be a positive and growing influence to the glory of God and the extension of God's kingdom within particularly the Malinslee area, where we are situated.
Our worship could be described as central and is primarily eucharist based, traditional and liturgical in style yet seeking to be progressive and creative. But come and see for yourself!
St Leonard's was built in 1805,and it is one of only three Thomas Telford designed churches in England. Our picture gallery gives some images.
As a church we are part of the Church of England parish of Central Telford, within the Diocese of Lichfield. We seek to work closely with other Anglican churches and churches of other denominations within the town. We are also glad to have close links with a couple of local primary schools, who have various services in the building during the year. Part of the ministry of St Leonard's is also within a number of sheltered housing schemes, where individuals from the church, (not just the vicar!), lead services. Each year we support the Christmas Shoe Box appeal, run by Samaritan's Purse, to help disadvantaged children.
We also are used by various local community organisations during the week - a parent and toddlers group, and an aerobics class (with creche provided). Once a month we also host a council and church jointly organised elderly persons gathering, called 'the silver tea party'.
You would be very welcome to any of our Sunday or weekday services and we hope to see you some time!
May God bless you...
