St. Leonards is a small and friendly church high in the Chiltern Hills, near Wendover Woods. The highlight of each month is our Breakfast service, generally on the third Sunday starting at 9 am with coffee and croissants in the Church Room, followed by a half-hour service in Church. Come and see!
There's also a Parish Communion service generally on the first Sunday starting at 9 am.
This Christmas there's a 'Midnight Communion' on 24th December, starting at 11.30 pm
The Church of England has a good videocast on YouTube (just 3 minutes long) which is well worth watching: https://youtu.be/uglkRXWOZak .
Also, try visiting our online carol service (51 mins) which was prepared in 2020 during the pandemic by/for the Hilltops and The Lee.
Please do visit the church, which is generally open for private prayer.
Please use either 'A Church Near You' to find an online service, or visit the Oxford Diocese, or the Church of England website for more details. Our own short reading of Night Prayer, accompanied by Taize music, can be found here. You may also find the 'Psalm of Isolation' and 'You Say' helpful.
God bless you, and we hope to see you at our monthly breakfast service!

Hawridge: St Mary
St Mary's Hawridge is a small village church in the Chilterns. Hawridge (pronounced Harridge), and its close neighbours, Cholesbury, Heath End, Buckland Common and St Leonards, call themselves the "Hilltop Villages".
These villages are rural places, and Hawridge has a fine Common. You will see walkers and riders and cyclists throughout, although few residents now work in the villages. The Church community is obviously an important part of the wider village life.
There are regular Pairsh Communion services at St. Mary's Church, Hawridge, which from May 2022 will be once a month on the third Sunday of th month at 11.00 AM. Regular worship is offered accross the churches of the Benefice at St. Lawrence Church, Cholesbury and St. Leonard's Church, St. Leonards.
Weddings, Baptisms and funerals are all hosted at St. Mary's Church and their is an open graveyard.
