Remembering with Prayer (All Souls' Memorial Service)

for 1 hour
St Martin's Dorking
Church Street Dorking, RH4 1DW, United Kingdom

Our annual service of reflection and prayer for the departed. This service is an opportunity to remember those whom we love but see no longer, and to commend them to God. Names of those to be remembered will be read, and there is an opportunity to light a candle.

St Martin's Dorking

The church of St Martin's Dorking is the mother church of Dorking and is the civic church for the town. The church building is one of the largest in Guildford diocese and the spire is one of the highest in the UK. The current church dates from the 1870s and is the third church built on the site. We are open all day for visitors and pilgrims throughout the year. 

The church community at St Martin's seeks to be a beacon of Christian faith and hope in the centre of the town. We offer a range of worship, prayer and Christian nurture that is rooted in a generous orthodoxy. Our Christian worship is centred on scripture and the sacraments, and through these we seek to receive God's truth, love and grace.

The church is open for private prayer everyday from 9am. There is a prayer resource area in the nave and the blessed sacrament is reserved in the Lady Chapel (which is set aside as a quiet area for prayer and worship).

If you want to find out more about the Christian faith, please contact us.
