All Saints Church is one of five churches that form The River Idle Benefice of Churches. We are part of the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham in the Church of England. We seek to gather as Christ’s people, valuing everyone’s contribution; Growing in our faith, love and service; Going into the world as disciples. We gather to grow and to go.
We are committed to worship for all ages and offer a variety of services across our benefice and we worship together regularly as a benefice. We are seeking to grow our provision for children and families and as part of this commitment we have a 9.30am service every Sunday in St Nicholas Church, Bawtry , which is very much an inter-generational church service, with contemporary worship and lasts for one hour. Our Kids meet over in Bawtry Church Hall for 'Sundayz Cool' during this time and we look forward to them sharing with us at the end of our worship.
There is an 11.15am Holy Communion service each week across the Benefice which is more traditional in style and where hymns are sung. Our benefice gathers together for these services which follow this pattern:
1st Sunday - All Saints' Mattersey
2nd Sunday - Holy Trinity, Everton
3rd Sunday - St Nicholas, Bawtry
4th Sunday - St John the Baptist, Misson
5th Sunday - St Helena's, Austerfield.
Links with our local schools are very important to us as we work to encourage children to explore and grow in faith. If you would like to find out more about anything that you see here please do contact us or come along to one of our services, we’d love to get to know you!
The parish of Mattersey is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Southwell & Nottingham’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
Ensuring that children and young people as well as adults are kept safe whilst in our care is an integral part of our church life. If you have any concerns about safeguarding please contact:
