All Saints' Church, Chevington

About Us

All Saints’ church, a Grade 1 listed building, is situated on the edge of the village against the boundary of the National Trust’s Ickworth Park. The church building is open throughout the week for the wider community to enjoy as a place of reflection and peace.

We are an open friendly, welcoming congregation with a good atmosphere at services and strong fellowship. We seek to be a parish church for all, to promote the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the doctrines and practices of the Church of England and continue to evolve as a community whilst responding to the needs of the parish and the wider world.

· We provide pastoral care within the parish ranging from home communions to a weekly Community Coffee Club in the village hall, and to promote the inclusion of teenagers/young adults and developing additional channels to engage further with our local community.

All Saints’ maintains a liberal catholic tradition, with a weekly Sunday Eucharist Service (Common Worship). Other services are held on weekdays and festivals with the occasional Taize-style service during the year. We enjoy a strong music tradition with Sung Eucharist accompanied either by our resident organist or our own consort of musicians and ad hoc choir.
