We Meet at 10.30am every Sunday

We are a traditional Church of England parish church with an emphasis on helping folk to know and live out the good news of Jesus Christ.

There is an emphasis on listening to God, not least through the Bible, and allowing God's Spirit to build us up as a family of all ages. In this way we are helped to meet the challenges we all face and are also encouraged to offer a measure of healing to the brokenness inevitably encountered in a beautiful but broken world. 

For baptisms and weddings etc please contact the vicar: vicarofchalk@hotmail.com
