St Mary's, Whitelackington

A warm welcome awaits at St Mary's, Whitelackington, a small village church with a big heart.  Just 1.5 miles outside of Ilminster, our beautiful church offers visitors a quiet sanctuary.  We have regular Sunday services and are also a popular wedding venue for local couples and those with qualifying connections.

An overview of our services can be found in the Services and Events section, or downloaded as a poster under News and notices. 

As one of two churches within the Benefice of Ilminster and Whitelackington, our shared Mission is to be Beacons of Christ’s light – sharing our love for God and our neighbours.
