About Us

St. Mary’s is a church where we have fellowship, freedom and fun, to worship the Lord Jesus Christ in traditional and also in more informal ways. It is a place where we can laugh, cry and genuinely be ourselves in our worship and it is a place where we have begun to expect to see the Holy Spirit at work. St. Mary’s is a place where we are challenged and made to think about our faith not just in the church but also in our daily lives. In recent years we have added a kitchen and toilet to help our building to be a more welcoming space. 

However the Kingdom of God is not just about the building or the congregation but rather the people of our community. We seek to make God known in our community and enjoy working with the schools in the village, the community shop, and with those who live in the local retirement complex.

We enjoy meeting together and with rest of the Shaftesbury team and our brothers and sisters at the Methodist Chapel.
