St. Mary's Church, Little Finborough is part of the Combs and Finborough Benefice.
Welcome to St Mary' s Church, Little Finborough in Suffolk
The church is usually open daily from 8.00 am to 7.00 pm in the summer months, and 8.00 am to 4.00 pm in the winter months.
The church stands amid the fields of rural Suffolk. It is in a tranquil environment, suited to contemplation, meditation and to the worship of God. It is the focus of our church community which gathers week by week to engage with God’s Mission of love to the world. Will you join us on our journey?
The church is tiny, unlike many of the mighty churches of Suffolk. It was greatly renovated during the Victorian period, but retains features from the medieval period. Although it is not grand or impressive, it is charming, warm and welcoming. When the sun shines, it floods the interior of the building with light. The regular services follow the Book of Common Prayer. There are occasional special services, which follow different formats.
We invite you to explore the pages on our church and our services, and promise to give you a warm welcome when you come to see us in person. We are in a benefice with
Combs,
Great Finborough,
Buxhall,
Onehouse,
Harleston and
Shelland who you will find have a similar focus for their work.
Our Rector is the Reverend Sarah Jenkins.
Our Associate Priest is the Reverend Canon Pauline Higham.
