We believe & hope we're warm & welcoming but we won't hug you to death. If you seek privacy this will be respected. Because of the arrangement of the pews visitors do not have to sit in the front and there are no sides so they can follow what we do.
The church is quite hard to spot, you can't see it from the Hurtwood Inn Hotel but go past to the Village Hall and you can! It's opposite the Village Hall.
The choir lead us in the Gloria, Sanctus & Agnes Dei and our clergy, chalice bearers & choir are robed.
Children of all ages are welcome. We provide colouring materials at the back of the church at our 10am Parish Communions where parents may take their children if they wish.
There are 2 churches in the parish, the Sunday morning Services alternate between them.
The fifth Sunday is a lottery! If it's not there no decision has yet been made.
We have a basic pattern to our Services which you can view under the tab "Services and Events" but as there are sometimes changes please do not rely on this! You will also find details of any special services here.
To find out the times and places for our planned Services, go to 'News' to the right, click on the month and it will download a 'Word' document. This is what's published in the Parish Magazine and on Notice Boards.
An A5 card version may be picked up in the Church once the previous month is over.
Every Sunday we give out our 'Weekly Notes' which give details of Services and other activities during the following week as well as the following Sunday. They also give notice of any late changes to the Services as published and advance notice of any special Services.
Hopefully they will appear on the site once they've been published but may be picked up from either church, both of which are open every day. If you'd like a copy emailed please phone 01483 203352.
We're quite capable of making mistakes so, please, if you spot something that looks silly, please ring 01483 203352 to check and if it's wrong, we'll say 'Thank you' & correct it.
If you're planning a visit please phone 01483 202394 to check no additional services or events such as funerals, school assemblies, weddings or visits are taking place when you'd like to come. We don't put these on this site.
Please always check services before making a special journey by phoning in advance.
In the first instance please always phone the Rector, the Revd. Nick Whitehead on 01483 202394. The Curate, the Revd. Judy Potter's number is 01483 203352.
