St Mary's, Bury St Edmunds

St Mary’s is one of the largest and most historic church buildings in the country and is the civic church of Bury St Edmunds. It is also a popular visitor destination. The congregations of around 180 worshippers are keen to grow in their faith and to build on the strength of the church’s presence in the town. The variety of worship is a strength, from contemporary band-led worship to choral music of an excellent standard.
