St Mary

St Mary

We are a friendly festival church, hosting around 6 or 7 services a year in addition to weddings and baptisms.

Our services attract Monnington locals, those connected to Monnington families and others across the benefice. We often meet together after our services for a generous tea. The church is held in high affection by Monnington villagers and is visited frequently by walkers passing along the Wye Valley walk.

St John the Baptist

We are a small though enthusiastic congregation that meets for services twice a month, usually a communion service on the first Sunday of the month and a service of the Word on the third Sunday. Our fundraising activities, particularly our summer teas, are enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. The church has a side chapel which can be turned into a community space when needed.

St John the Baptist

We hold our services on the third Sunday of the month at 10.30 in the morning, mainly alternating between a Eucharist and a more informal service of prayer and praise. We welcome families and are child and animal friendly; we hold an annual Pet Blessing Service in the autumn and a local donkey regularly takes part in our Carol Service.

Our fundraising and special events are well supported and organised through our informal neighbourhood network. The church, which is on the route of the Wye Valley Walk, dates back to the 12th century.
