Messy Church is a relaxed, all-age way of being church — with crafts and hands-on activities, a short time of celebration and worship, and food shared together. It’s Christ-centred, welcoming, and perfect for anyone who doesn’t usually do “Sunday church”.

St Barnabas Hadleigh

Whether you’re new to the area, returning to church, or simply curious about faith, you are very welcome at St Barnabas. We’re a friendly Church of England community in Hadleigh, and we’d love you to feel at home with us.

Sundays at 9:30am

Our main Sunday service begins at 9:30am and alternates between Holy Communion and Morning Worship. Every service finishes with tea and coffee, with time to chat, meet new people, and share life together.

Midweek Holy Communion

We also meet for Midweek Holy Communion on Thursdays at 10:30am.
As always, we finish with tea and coffee and a chance to connect.
