All Saints Turkdean celebrates a traditional BCP Matins service with Holy Communion at 10:30am on the first Sunday every month (save January and August.)

Coffee and refreshments are served in the Nave following the service so that parishioners and visitors have an opportunity to chat.

We do not celebrate our regular monthly Matins service in January (too cold) or August (everyone is or should be on holiday!)

A special Eventide observance of Holy Communion led by The Revd Gary Grady in celebration of the 400th anniversary of the death of composer William Byrd and the return of Turkdean's medieval bells.

The Cantores Chamber Choir directed by Simon Harper will sing Byrd''s Mass for four voices as part of a celebratory service of eventide communion, after which, lavish refreshments will be served in the Nave.

Because of our very limited seating capacity tickets must be obtained in advance of the service from www.ticketsource.co.uk/turkdean

We suggest a donation of £15 per ticket.

A traditional service of carols and readings led by our Benefice's Priest-in-Charge, Rev Dr Alycia Timmis and held by candlelight.

Although indoors, it is usually worth wrapping up warmly and bringing a torch if you think that our handheld candles may not provide sufficient light for you to read the Order of Service (although people generally comment that the church is surprisingly well lit by candlelight!)

Mulled wine and mince pies will be served in the Nave after the service.

All will be very welcome indeed, both from within the Parish, the wider Benefice and further afield.
