24 hour Prayer taking place from 2pm on Friday 9th June through to 2pm on Saturday 10th June 2023.

Attached is a grid showing the Prayer times, with some of the hour long sessions filled in, so that you can see briefly what is happening.

As this is the first Churches Together event for several years it would be good to join in with it.

The event opens and closes with a communion Service.

Please select a time and come along and stay as long or as little as you like. We have tried to offer a variety of ways to pray, some of the sessions will be led, some are open for more creative prayer, especially those marked "Free Session". And we will have two ‘Prayer Walks’ offered on Saturday morning leaving St Mary's Church & the Coop (Burghfield) both at 8am. Refreshments are available and we would love to welcome you as we prayer together for our communities, our churches and all our needs.

St Mary's Burghfield

Hello and welcome!

If you’re new to St Mary’s or to Burghfield and Burghfield Common, we’d like to welcome you to our community. We hope that this page will answer some of your questions about church life in Burghfield.

If there’s anything else you’d like to ask, speak to Reverend Glynn or one of the Churchwardens.

When are the services?
We normally have one main service every Sunday at 10:00am. This is usually a Communion service with a mix of traditional and modern hymns. Our music group plays most Sundays, though we also use ‘a hymn box’ occasionally. We have refreshments after this service, when there’s an opportunity to meet newcomers and chat together. –

This service is currently being held in church and via Zoom to offer an opportunity for people to join in our worship from home.

Sunday@6 is a monthly evening service which takes place on the 2nd Sunday of the month at 6pm (followed by refreshments).  This is an informal service, of worship, teaching and prayer, all ages welcome.

All the details to join us for our worship can be found under 'Services' in our Pew Sheet.  

On the third Sunday of the month we have Breakfast@Church at 09:00am which is an opportunity for anyone of all ages to have a light breakfast together (including bacon butties) and enjoy some fellowship before the 10:00am Service. 

You are most welcome to come and have a look around St Mary's Church or to just sit and find some peace.   The Church is open during the day, every day of the week.
