Thursday Group meets in members homes once a fortnight, except in Lent when the group meets weekly.

Alvaston Parish Church

We welcome everyone to our accessible building and to all our services and events.  

As well as Sunday worship, during the week the building is open most days for private prayer, and most of the day (11am-4pm) on Wednesdays for the Warm Welcome Hub, Midweek Gathering, and 'Craft & Chat'.  

Weekly worship gatherings in the church (check events page for details and specific dates):
Sunday 9am - Holy Communion*, and 10:45am Worship*
Tuesday 8:45am Morning Prayer*
Wednesday 10:15pm Midweek Communion
 * also live streamed on our YouTube channel  https://www.youtube.com/@AlvastonChurch/streams  

We have a number of different styles and experiences of worship throughout the month, but one Lord and saviour - Jesus Christ.

The Church is not the building, but the people.  We seek to bring God's Love, Healing and Scripture to the people of the parish, and make our building a focal point of community life.

(Alvaston Parish Church is also known locally, and on some maps, as Alvaston: St. Michaels.)
