Visitors are very welcome at all our services.
See the Calendar for any changes to this pattern.
8.00 am Holy Communion
This is a peaceful, said service
using the traditional words of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer.
10.00 am Parish Communion
This is our main service of the
day, using the Common Worship liturgy, Order One in modern
language. The various Young St Mary’s groups meet during this service (See the Children page).
Afterwards, there is a chance to chat over coffee in the Church Hall.
There is a rota for essential duties.

6.30 pm Evening Prayer
This is a reflective service as
night draws in. We alternate between the Book of Common Prayer and Common
Worship. There is a communion service on the fourth Sunday of the month
instead.
Daily Communion
All are welcome to the daily Communion service held at 9 am in Fairacres Convent in Parker Street
Six times a year, the Parish
Communion is an All-Age Service. This is held
in the more informal setting of the Church Hall, with a children's
orchestra providing the music.
Morning Prayer
For those who like to start their day with prayer and reflection,
Morning Prayer is said in church at 8.30 am every Wednesday.
We have two bible study groups and a prayer group
which meet weekly or fortnightly in the evening.
There is also a third bible study group which normally meets at 2.30 in Donnington
on the third Monday of each month. "Prayer and Toast" is on a Friday 7.30 in the morning at the Vestry.
New members are welcome to any of these five groups.
To find out more contact the Vicar.

Looking Beyond the Parish
We regularly provide food for
the Gatehouse centre for the homeless. Once a month, there is a simple lunch to
raise money for Christian Aid. We target a different cause each month with our MISSION OF THE MONTH.
