During the spring and summer, St Mary's is open for you to spend some quiet time and in private prayer every day, from 9.30 am to 5.30pm. The only exception is when there is a service or an event in the Church. If you are making a special trip and want to double check before you visit, do drop us a message, via the Get in Touch section.

This is a shorter (said) version of a Eucharist service, without the hymns or a sermon.

St Mary's has an enthusiastic robed choir who lead the congregation in worship, accompanied by the organ.

They also perform anthems for special services, and are particularly busy over Easter and Christmas, with both Advent and Christmas carol services.

Choir practice is in St Mary's Church on Wednesdays at 7:00pm. Newcomers, ideally with a basic ability to read music, are always welcome.

A service of Holy Communion which usually includes a sermon and four hymns. The term "Sung" means that, in addition to the hymns, some parts of the service are sung by the congregation. The words and music are in the service booklet and are easy to sing!

Evensong is a service that’s traditionally held - as the name suggests - in the evening, marking the passing of another day in faith. It’s fairly short, usually around 40 minutes, and features choral music, readings and prayers.

On the first Thursday of every month we hold an informal drop-in session for a cup of coffee (or tea, if you'd prefer) and a friendly welcome. Come and say hello - the kettle's on and the cake's been baked!

On Sunday, 14th June it is Music Sunday and our Director of Music, Martin Rhodes, will be running the service. The service will be “Fun musical worship for all” We invite everyone who can play any sort of instrument to come and join St Mary’s fun orchestra for the service, all ages and abilities are invited and we will worship God with our music.
There will be a list in Church for people sign up to with the instrument they can play and based on the response we will play and all sing a variety of worship songs. Most of all we will have lots of fun, which may be somewhat chaotic, but fun. We have a variety of instruments that can be rattled, shaken, or bashed for those without their own instruments.
