St Benedict's, Gunton

St Benedict's is a modern church building on Hollingsworth Road. It is home to a congregation whose mission is to live and share the good news of Jesus Christ. We are part of the Diocese of Norwich in the Church of England.

Services are held at St Benedict's on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month at 9.30am.

Our parish also includes St Peter's, where services are held on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month at 11am. When there is a 5th Sunday in the month we gather together for worship at a Benefice service at one of the churches in our group of parishes.

The building at St Benedict's is used by a pre-school group every morning during term time. We also provide a venue for Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, and a WI group.

We look forward to welcoming you!
