Time to pause and draw aside can be hard to find in our busy lives. St Mary’s church and grounds provide a wonderful conducive space to do that and we welcome people to call in and enjoy the stillness at any time.

We offer a variety of guided times of retreat, reflection and quiet. These are designed as an opportunity to deepen in our awareness of God’s love for us and God’s presence in our lives. They are often linked into the seasons of the church year and are open to anyone. We generally include a mix of guided meditations (often based on Scripture) in a group setting, combined with suggestions for reflection alone, where there is opportunity to find a corner to yourself either inside or outside. Participants are free to stay as long as they want or are able. Refreshments are also provided.

“Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.” Jesus in the gospel of Mark 6:31

Safeguarding

Our Parish is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO ([email protected]) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
