The Coker Ridge Benefice will all be gathering at All Saints Closworth for a special Family-friendly service for Mothering Sunday this year. All are welcome, women should be recieving flowers on the day, we will have refreshments after the service.
It may be a squeeze fitting everyone in but we are so looking forward to worshipping together. One highlight of the service will be the Benefice choir bringing a new anthem.
If driving and able bodied, please do park on verges further from the church, leaving spaces for those less able-bodied closer to the building. Thank you and please be patient finding a space!

Rev Phil is giving extended Sermons digging into the early chapters of Genesis. These are given in services of evening prayer, hosted across the Benefice. Hymns and Refreshments may be a part of our gatherings - but no promises!
All very welcome.

9:15am every second Sunday of the month, using traditional language Common Worship, we hold a worship service of Holy Communion where all are welcome to join. Sometimes we have traditional hymns too.

A Book of Common Prayer Service of Evening Prayer, usually with musical accompaniment to the liturgy with a few hymns and a reflective homily. Whether you are able to sing along or not, you are so welcome to come and join in.

An important gathering for the whole Benefice in Holy Week to Celebrate Holy Communion as we remember Jesus' Last Supper with his Disciples. Hand Washing will be offered as a part of the service, but is not compulsory to engage with.

All Saints Church, Sutton Bingham, will be open through the afternoon and early evening with prayer stations and space to sit and contemplate the Crucifixion of Jesus and the depth of meaning in Christian Theology his offering of himself means to us all today. All welcome to come and engage with the atmosphere of peace and reflection.

Our Church's AGM where we celebrate 2024, update on progress on the Governance including a report on finances and we appoint Churchwardens and PCC (Parochial Church Council) Members.
Technically these are three meetings back to back. As a small church hope to complete all three in under an hour.
All our welcome, but only members of our new Electoral Roll will be able to vote at the APCM.
