Everyone is welcome at our services of worship, both in church and online. As a Church of England church, we follow the Common Worship pattern of services produced by the Church of England, often referred to as the Common Worship lectionary. Our main service of the week is on a Sunday at 10am, this is our service of Holy Communion. The service includes sharing of the bread and wine, readings, hymns and a sermon. This service is normally live streamed to our Facebook Page and YouTube Channel. We also offer other services including a Eucharist service from the Book of Common Prayer (BCP); this is a traditional said service with readings, prayers, and a short homily. Complimenting the above is our Arts @ Banbury St Mary (Arts@BSM) initiative. This is a dynamic and inclusive program of events designed to foster community connections through diverse artistic and cultural events. Arts@BSM offers a variety of activities that appeal to a broad audience. These include art and craft workshops, jigsaw, book and early music festivals, two craft fairs, together with an eclectic mix of concerts. These events not only showcase the artistic talent within Banbury, but also create a welcoming environment for community members to connect, learn, and grow together.
