Welcoming Everyone
AN INCLUSIVE CHURCH
St Mary's is a member of Inclusive Church, signing up to the Inclusive Church Statement:
“We believe in inclusive church – a church which celebrates and affirms every person and does not discriminate.
We will continue to challenge the church where it continues to discriminate against people on grounds of disability, economic power, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, learning disability, mental health, neurodiversity, or sexuality.
We believe in a Church which welcomes and serves all people in the name of Jesus Christ; which is scripturally faithful; which seeks to proclaim the Gospel afresh for each generation; and which, in the power of the Holy Spirit, allows all people to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Jesus Christ.” (Inclusive Church Statement)
AN OPEN CHURCH
The Church is open every day and our hall provides a meeting place for several groups. For more details click Hall Bookings.
We welcome enquiries about baptism, confirmation and marriage. We offer a service of blessing to those married in a Registry Office, especially those who may have been married before.
We are here in difficult times: to offer prayers for those in need; to help with the planning and leading of funerals in church, at the Crematorium or Cemetery.
