Parish Communion

Celebrate 150 Years of the Mothers' Union at St James the Great
Join us as we celebrate 150 years of the Mothers' Union, giving thanks for a century and a half of faithful prayer, service and support for families and communities across the world.
This is a particularly special occasion for St James the Great, Colwall, as Mary Sumner, the founder of the Mothers' Union, was married here. We are delighted to mark this important anniversary in the very church that forms part of her own story.
The celebration service will be led by our Rector, Revd Preb. Melanie Horton, together with Revd Penny Littlewood, Chaplain to the Mothers' Union.
Sunday 9 August
2.30pm
St James the Great, Colwall
Everyone is warmly welcome, whether you are a member of the Mothers' Union, have supported its work over the years, or would simply like to discover more about its remarkable history and continuing ministry.
The service will be followed by a traditional afternoon tea, offering an opportunity to celebrate together and enjoy fellowship.

A simple liturgy which enables us to pray for peace in the world.

After three wonderful years of ministry in Colwall and Coddington, Revd Andrew Falconer will be leading his final service at St James the Great, Colwall before moving to his new parish.

Everyone is warmly invited to join us as we give thanks for Andrew's ministry, celebrate all that has been shared together, and pray God's blessing on the next chapter of his journey.

Sunday 16 August
10.00am
St James the Great, Colwall

The celebration will continue with fizz after the service, followed by lunch at The Ale House, Colwall.

If you would like to join us for lunch, please RSVP using the link to the church website.

Colwall Mothers' Union meets on the third Thursday of the month, enjoying a guest speaker, a simple act of worship and some refreshments. MU is open to women and men, not just mothers!

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE MEET IN THE ALE HOUSE, ST JAMES'S CHURCH, MILL LANE, COLWALL FROM APRIL TO OCTOBER.

Our early communion service, following the Book of Common Prayer

Be Still is a gentle space for anyone who longs for a little quiet in a noisy world.

Once a month, St Crispin Chapel becomes a small circle gathered around a simple centre: a candle, a stone, a book. We meet for thirty minutes when the week still hums in your body. Through a short reading, perhaps some calming music, and shared silence, you’re invited to slow down, breathe, and simply be.

There is no pressure to speak and nothing to achieve. Just space to rest, reflect, and gently explore the spiritual in a way that feels safe, quiet, and human.
