Ratlinghope: St Margaret's

Welcome to St Margaret's and it's beautiful rural setting.  We are part of the OnnyCamlad Benefice, a group of 9 churches within the Diocese of Hereford.   

Our church is open everyday for you to come and have some quiet time and we welcome visitors to all of our services.

Across the Benefice there are a range of services every Sunday so if we haven't got a service here at Ratlinghope there will be one close by.  

If you want to find out more or wish to enquire about a wedding or baptism then please contact our Benefice Administrator by email at [email protected] or leave a message at the number listed below.

The parish of Ratlinghope is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our safeguarding officer, Mrs Sue Cooke. The Diocese of Hereford’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.

What's on

5th Sunday Benefice Holy Communion for St Peter the Apostle

for 1 hour
More: St Peter
More Bishops Castle, SY9 5HH, United Kingdom

Please can I encourage people to come to our 10.30am Benefice Holy Communion Service at St Peter's More this Sunday. Part of being a benefice is that we support each other and join together on a fifth Sunday. It is good to worship and sing together.

This Sunday (29th June) is also the day when we remember St Peter in the church calendar, so it is fitting that we should all be at St Peter's Church More. There will be car parking in the Glebe Field to the right of the new churchyard at the back of the church. There will be good refreshments after the church so a chance for us to enjoy our fellowship with one another.

I look forward to seeing you.
Rev Giles Tulk
