The Parish Church is normally open every day (nominally between 09:00 and dusk). Note that there may be occasions where the church will be temporarily closed after, for instance, a funeral service.
There is hand sanitiser available at the entrance (North door).
Parish Communion is at 10am.
Family Service is usually every 3rd Sunday of the month.
We aim to livestream our 10am services on our Facebook page, subject to the vagaries of the internet. They will also be available at any time, once the livestream has finished.
Do check the 'What's on' page of our website for further details for specific Sundays.
The form of this service varies throughout the month - the normal pattern is as below, but this may change to accommodate festivals and other special occasions.
The first and third Sundays of the month are a spoken service of Evening Prayer.
On the Second Sunday, it is Compline, sung to plainchant by the gentlemen of the choir. This is a short service of around 20 minutes.
The Fourth Sunday is a full Choral Evensong with the choir (including Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis setting, and an Anthem).
Where there is a fifth Sunday in the month, there is no evening service at the Parish church - instead a Service of Evensong takes place in one of the two associated churches in the Parish - Little Hampden and St Mary's Ballenger.
Please see the church Facebook page and website for the latest details of specific services - at present, these services will not be available online.
