During September our preaching will be focused on the Season of Creation, which runs until October 5th. This is a time to renew our relationship with our Creator and all creation, and during this time we join our sisters and brothers in the ecumenical family in prayer and action for our common home. The these for 2025 is "Peace with Creation" with the hope and expectation that Creation will find peace when justice is restored. To hope in a biblical context does not mean tto stand still and stay quiet but to act, pray, change and reconcile with Creation and the Creator in unity, metanoia (repentance) and solidarity. It culminates with our Harvest Festival on 5th October when we will be thinking of our neighbours in the farming community here and elsewhere in the world.

A relatively quiet Communion service on Tuesday morning in traditional language using the Book of Common Prayer which usually lasts about 30 minutes.

We celebrate Communion every Sunday at 11am except the fifth Sunday of the month in Autumn and Winter, when a Benefice service is held in one of our sister churches.
This is the central act of worship in our week with music and singing, which usually lasts an hour and is then followed by refreshments.
All welcome to join us.
