Stourhead Benefice is a group of eight churches here in rural West Suffolk. Each church has its own individual characteristics. Take a look at each one on the "our churches" tab. Information about parking and accessibility is available under each individual parish.
Our Rector is Fr Christopher Giles. His contact details are listed below.
On Saturday 16 May we are holding our Annual Benefice Garden Party. This is a free event for anyone from our eight communities. There will be a BBQ and a bar at Little Thurlow Hall, by kind permission of Robin Vestey, from 5pm until 8pm.

We are maintaining good hygiene practises including, for example, priests and servers using alcohol-based hand-sanitiser before Holy Communion, and before distributing the consecrated wafers.
Sharing of the common cup is now permitted. However, if you do not wish to receive from the Chalice, please say ‘Intinct’ as the Priest approaches you, and they will intinct (or dip) the wafer in consecrated wine from a separate Chalice.
Gluten Free wafers are available. If you require a gluten free wafer at communion, please speak to the priest or a member of the Ministry Team before the service.
