St Mary's Bletchley

Welcome to St Mary's, Bletchley. We are a vibrant Anglican church in Milton Keynes with a vision to help all ages come to a personal faith in Jesus, assist people to deepen that relationship, and pioneer new churches throughout our amazing fast growing City.

St Mary’s church is a Jesus-centered, all age, every member ministry, community-focused, outreaching church that seeks to start new Christian communities in Milton Keynes. We are serving the needs of our local community, through very active friendship groups and specialist Debt advice services.

St Joe's, Newton Leys

Hello, and welcome to St Joe's! So, who are we…?

Informally: we are a “Church for those who don't ‘do church’. An extended family of sorts - in & out of each others homes.”

Formally: St Joseph’s (Church of England) church was formed in April 2017 to serve the new-build housing area known as Newton Leys, to the south of Bletchley and Milton Keynes. The church was started with the help and support of St Mary’s Parish Church in Bletchley. St Joe’s is officially recognised by the Anglican Oxford Diocese but continues, at the moment, to ‘come under’ the organisational and charitable status of St Mary’s Church.

How would we describe ourselves? A local, community church? Yes! A new expression of church? Yes! A church for those who don't usually do church, or who have become a bit disillusioned with church? Yes!

We focus on a ‘missional model’, to informally but strategically share Jesus, life and community with each other - and anyone who wants to take this faith-journey with us. We meet two or three times during the month at the local primary school for Sunday morning services, and on other Sundays, and at other times, we organise a range of activities and events that fulfil and enhance our mission and calling.
