We are a Church of England parish church and we welcome all who wish to visit or worship with us.
Sunday Eucharistic worship is central to our life. We also offer weekday Holy Communion Services. From our worship stems our social activities and pastoral work, including Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals. We minister not only to our congregation but also to all who live and work in and around Benton and Forest Hall.
Our music and liturgy seek to be the very best we can offer so that people can engage with worship. Everyone is encouraged to join in services and social activities.
St Bartholomew's is committed to maintaining a Safeguarding Policy in line with diocesan procedures and good practise and the House of Bishop’s Policy. Further details can be found on our website.
