All events Calendar Advent & Christmas

Our normal pattern of worship consists of Eucharistic morning services on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month; less formal Morning Worship on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month; Morning Prayer, celebrated over Zoom, each Tuesday morning, and Compline, celebrated over Zoom, each Thursday evening. All Sunday services are followed by refreshments served in the church. Children are welcome to all our services, and there are baby-changing facilities and an upper room from which the service can be both observed and heard discretely.
