Open Doors

Your church is open and is open every day. Your church is open for prayer, for quiet, for rest, for contemplation, for enjoyment and for interest. The doors are opened by 08:00 and close at 17:00 or at dusk. We look forward to welcoming you….soon

Join the congregation

The absolute best way to connect with your church is to come along. Join the congregation and Worship our God and all He has done and continues to do for us. EVERYONE is welcome to come to every service.  Joining our congregation makes you part of a living community of people seeking to be prayerful and compassionate proclaimers of the Christian faith.

We hold Evening and Morning prayer everyday, during which we pray for matters concerning the world and our local community. If you would like to join your prayers with ours, please contact Fr Pip in total confidence.

There is so much going on at St Aldhelm’s, from worship to music, from links with the community to our Pre-School and local care homes.

Our volunteers are the backbone of St Aldhelm’s. As well as organising and supporting events of all different types, they have a really fun time fellowship and we would love for you to get involved. If you do have some time to spare, please email the office or just turn up and say hello.

Become a friend

The aim of the ‘Friends’ is to create and build a fund which is used in support of the work of the Church. If you have St. Aldhelm’s in your heart then you are already a Friend and you might consider going one step further and supporting the events the friends put on and maybe by making a small donation towards its work. If this sounds of interest, then check out the dedicated Friends of St Aldhelms page.
