St James's is a friendly Anglican church in Gretton, Northamptonshire, sharing community, clergy and events with St John's, Corby. The church and church yard are open everyday from 8am, but locked from 5pm (4 pm in winter) except for services and special events.
Our services are relaxed and welcoming:
SUNDAY SERVICES
Morning Holy Communion every Sunday of the month at 9am
Evensong third Sunday of the month at 6pm
FRIDAY MORNING PRAYERS, first Friday of month at 10.15am (before Forget-Me-Not Cafe)
WEDNESDAY MORNING Holy Communion at 10am.
But you don't have to come to a service - everyone is welcome to visit the church and churchyard just to look around, reflect and maybe pray.
