Services at All Saints

Sunday Services

Our regular pattern has three services each Sunday: a quiet celebration of Holy Communion at 8:00 am, using the Book of Common Prayer; our main morning service at 10:00 am using modern (CW) texts; and an evening service at 6:30 pm. Within that we have a monthly cycle embracing a variety of styles of worship as follows:

This pattern changes slightly at special times of the year, such as Christmas and Easter. The Third Sunday evening service cycles between a Service of Healing, a Taizé Service and a Praise Service. You can check which in our diary. Full details of all Sunday services, current and historic, are available in the detailed service lists.

Junior Church meets in St John's Hall on the Second, Fourth and Fifth Sundays. There is a crèche in the meeting room at the back of church, along with (supervised) activities for younger children. On the First Sunday we all come to the Family Service at 10.00 a.m. which is a shorter service with special activities for children. Similarly the Family Eucharist on the Third Sunday is designed with children in mind.

We also run a monthly 'Messy Church' with arts and crafts activities for all the family followed by tea and a short act of worship in St John's Hall from 4:00 p.m. on the third Sunday of each month.

Weekday services

Holy Communion is celebrated on Thursdays at 11:00 am.

Members of our adult choir sing evening services by candlelight on Wednesdays at 7:15 pm. during term-time. (Choral Evensong on first, and Compline on the rest).

There is a special service for the under fives, along with their mum, dad, grandparents or carer, Prayers and Bears, on the first Tuesday of each month at 10:30 am. The service lasts approx 20 minutes and is followed by time for coffee, a chat and play.
