Prayer at St Mary's

We want to be a church who pray and seek God together. You are so welcome to join us to pray 9.15am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays.

You can just sit and listen, or pray out loud - it is entirely up to you. There's no pressure, just an invitation to join us, however you are.

Reception of Holy Communion

If you normally receive Holy Communion, you are welcome to receive here at St Mary’s. You can receive in one kind only (Just the bread or host) or take wine from the chalice following taking the bread. Intinction (dipping) of the host you receive in the wine is not allowed.
