Ranworth with Panxworth: St Helen

A warm welcome awaits you at our wonderful historical church of St Helen. Known as the ‘Cathedral of the Broads’ it is situated in the picturesque villages of Ranworth with Panxworth on the Norfolk Broads.

Our Sunday gatherings at 09:30am are at the heart of our worship. We sing, pray, hear as God’s Word is read and learn together as it is preached. Services last about an hour, with time afterwards for refreshments and a chat in the Visitors Centre.

There has been a church in Ranworth since 1044 and we are honoured to carry the mantle showing the love of Jesus Christ as we serve our communities of Ranworth and Panxworth as well as friends and visitors to the Broads.

We are delighted to offer Baptisms and Weddings. It would be our privilege to help families with arrangements for Funerals.  

Our regular services, special services and events are advertised on the next pages.
