At St Mary’s we offer a range of services across our two church buildings, each with its own character and style. Whether you prefer traditional liturgy, contemporary worship, or a quieter midweek space to pray, you will find a service to help you grow in faith and draw near to God.

St Mary’s is a Bible based church with a heart for mission and evangelism. We support work locally, nationally, and internationally, and we long to see people of all ages come to know and follow Jesus. Everything we do is rooted in Scripture, shaped by prayer, and carried out
in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Although our main services take place on Sundays, the life of our church family continues throughout the week. Our homegroups are especially important to us — small, welcoming communities where people meet for friendship, Bible study, and prayer,
and where faith is nurtured in a warm and supportive setting.
If you are exploring Christianity, or would like to deepen your understanding, we offer Alpha,
The Bible Course, the Unanswered Prayer Course, and other discipleship courses
at various points in the year. Each provides a relaxed and encouraging space
to ask questions and grow in faith.
Our services are open to everyone, and we hope you will always receive
a warm and genuine welcome. Whether you are new to church, returning after some time away,
or simply curious, we pray you will find something here that helps you on your journey of faith.
If you would like to check anything before you visit,
our Church Office is open most weekday mornings.
