Carlford Churches

The Carlford Churches are a group of Anglican Churches in Suffolk, just north of Ipswich. We are a community of over two hundred people spread across our nine historic rural churches and villages.

As part of living out our Christian faith we offer a range of worship services each Sunday in different churches. During the week we are returning to a variety of other activities from a monthly mid-week service to study groups, a toddler group, an after school group and coffee mornings. We are also involved in a number of warm room and food support projects.

We also offer online services for those that can't make it to church - On Facebook normally at 11am. Our newsletter MiniGrapevine comes out on Fridays.

We are also here to support anyone in our villages by offering a friendly chat so please do feel free to contact us.
