St Nicholas Church

St Nicholas’ Bathampton is a church family to which all are welcome. We meet together to help us to get to know Jesus better, enjoy friendship with each other, and reach out in service to our community. We want to encourage each other to live radically transformed lives of faith and love.

You're very welcome to join us at any of our services. St Nicholas’ meets at the parish church by the canal bridge for our Sunday Service starting at 10:45am. Coffee is served after the service. Junior Church on Sunday is for school-aged children from 4-14 years old. We spend the first 15-20 minutes in church with the adults before going to our groups for about 40 minutes.

The church is also open everyday from 10 am to 3 pm except Mondays and Saturdays for visitors to the Arthur Phillip display and for prayer. Please do contact our church administrator for a special visit on [email protected].

ALL WELCOME. Our main church service is every Sunday at 10:45 am and we meet in person as well as on Zoom. Coffee is served after the service.

We are also streaming the service via Zoom. You'll be able to see and hear what's going on in church and we'll be able to see and hear you at one or two points during the service if you choose to have your camera on. Mute your mic and sing as loud as you like! The meeting ID is 894 5345 2295; there is no password but there will be a waiting room when you join.

We believe that we are God’s people that he has called out of darkness into his wonderful light to declare his praises. Our aim is to hear God speaking through the Bible, understand what it means for our lives and encourage one another. We sing a mix of traditional hymns and modern songs, pray and often have a few minutes to hear from a member of the congregation about their faith, or get an update from one of our mission partners. The service lasts around an hour, and the first 15-20 minutes are normally aimed at all ages, including children, who then go out to Junior Church groups.

The morning service aims to be for everyone, with a blend of traditional and modern styles. On the first Sunday of the month we also have an evening service following a traditional liturgy (either the Book of Common Prayer or Common Worship) with older hymns, with a different sermon so you can come to both services on those days.

About twice a month we share the Lord’s Supper, and we use – quite flexibly – the forms of worship authorised in the Church of England’s Common Worship.

Communion is normally the 3rd Sunday of every month and occasionally other Sundays as well. We have a BCP Evening Prayer service at 6.00pm on the first Sunday of the month.
