St Saviour's Bournemouth

Welcome to St Saviour’s Church

We’re a friendly, caring, inter-generational Anglican church serving the Iford/Boscombe East area of Bournemouth. We are committed to loving Jesus with our whole lives, and to loving and serving each other and our wider community.

Weekly services

Everyone is welcome at our morning praise service at 10.30am, including a mixture of ‘in person’ and online elements. There is currently no need to book, but seats will be available on a first come, first served basis.  

A midweek traditional Communion service, with hymns accompanied by our organist, is held on Wednesday mornings at 9.30am. A time for contemplation and quiet.

If you are unable to attend in church, please join St Saviour’s online! The church is a more than just a building and we are seeking to worship, pray, and hear the Word of God together as we connect online. Our online services can found on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/StSavioursChurchBournemouth?sub_confirmation=1

We have a team of fit and able people contacting the most vulnerable in our church family. See contact details below if you need to access this help or if you are able to offer support.

**CURRENTLY ONLINE AND IN CHURCH**
In church
Meet together in church for our morning service, with some parts ‘in person’ and others ‘online’ displayed on the screens – it’s lovely to gather together and draw close to God. We’d love to see you there.

To make it as easy as possible for everyone to attend, booking will not be necessary for the moment. However, as there is limited capacity in church due to the social distancing measures required (about 50 people, depending on the number of household bubbles), seats will be offered on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, and entry may be limited if the church reaches full capacity. The situation will be reviewed regularly, and booking may be reintroduced once attendance increases.

Our children's and youth groups, Kidz Ablaze, are running in the church halls. Please email Caz at [email protected] or Jez at [email protected] to book a place.

We are taking all necessary steps to keep everyone as safe as possible, and appreciate your help. Further information about ‘Staying safe’ when attending church can be found here.

Online
Morning praise will also be made available online via our website and YouTube channel. Everyone is welcome, so invite your friends!

On the fourth Sunday of the month, we’ll be including a short Agape thanksgiving, so be prepared with bread and wine/juice (or suitable alternative).

We can still join ‘together at home’ and unite in our worship.
