Sunday Holy Communion service at 10.00am

Occurring
Every Sunday at for 1 hour
Venue
St Mary's Church, Blackpool
Address
Stonycroft Avenue Blackpool, FY4 2NR, United Kingdom

Our Sunday morning service begins at 10.00am. It includes prayers, readings, 4-5 hymns and taking Holy Communion. Gluten-free wafers for Communion are available upon request. If you don't wish to take Communion, you can have a prayer of blessing instead.

Children are welcome among us, as they were to Jesus, so, we have a child friendly area at the back of the church with toys and a collection of books available for all families to use during the service. A toilet is also available in the front entrance – our sides people can direct you.

We take a collection during a hymn, and while you are welcome to contribute, please feel under no obligation to do so. Simply pass the collection plate along.

Most of our services last just over an hour. They finish with a song and a blessing. After this service, you’re very welcome to stay for a chat over a cup of tea or coffee in the church hall next door (out of the main entrance, turn left around the side of the church).

If there is anything that you want to talk about or want to have prayer for, you are welcome to have a chat with whoever led the service on the day of your visit, or to contact our vicar who will be pleased to help.

Stonycroft Avenue Blackpool, FY4 2NR, United Kingdom

Everyone is welcome to our annual family friendly Christingle service.
Each element of a Christingle has a special meaning and these help to tell the Christian story. The orange represents the world. The red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ. The sweets and dried fruit represent all of God’s creations. The lit candle represents Jesus’s light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness.
We look forward to seeing you there!
