All Souls' Day Service Sunday 2 November 5pm

for 1 hour
St James
Hunstanworth, DH8 9UF , United Kingdom

This service will be a quiet, contemplative and reflective service of prayers and readings where we remember those loved ones who have died.
No refreshments will be served following the service.
The service is for the whole of the Derwent Valley Group and will be led by our new vicar, Rev Melanie Shillito.

St James


St James is a very pretty church, designed, along with the rest of our small village, by Teulon, a prominent Victorian architect. The church sits at the heart of our small community and is treasured.

We have five services a year, all very well attended, and always followed by famously substantial refreshments, giving us a welcome opportunity to continue in fellowship.


For more information, contact the churchwardens:
Philippa Buswell (01434 675097) or Mark Wheatley (01434 675163)
