9am, 2nd Sunday of the Month.

On the second Sunday we have a service of Holy Communion. This is also sometimes called a Eucharist. Here we share bread and wine to both remember Jesus’s saving actions and in a deep and mysterious way be attached to him as well as connected to each other. The service includes readings from the Bible, times of prayer, a reflection or sermon. Its done in traditional language and it is in fact an older form of service first developed in the 16th century called the Book of Common Prayer. People value it for its connection to our past and particularly for its beautiful language. We love this service with its reverence and holiness, but also as an opportunity to be together with God.

4pm, 4th Sunday of the Month

 This service is much loved in the Church of England. It’s a service that began its development in the 16th century but actually has ties to much early forms of worship in monasteries. It uses traditional language and through its regular rhythm is a time of prayer and reflection.

Please see the Events and Services Page for upcomming services. 

Taizé is a simple, meditative form of Christian worship, utilising short contemporary chants, prayerful silence, and bible readings to guide the focus of prayer in a candle-lit environment. These services call us to dwell deeply on Christ's presence within and among us.

The church of St. John the Baptist Cockayne Hatley is set in beautiful rural countryside, away from busy village and town life. It is therefore the perfect place to retreat to for these services and we would love for you to join us.
