Ash Wednesday

As we enter the season of Lent, we invite you to join us for a special service of Ashing and Holy Communion On Wednesday 18th February at 10am in St Mary's Church.

Pause for Prayer

Our weekly prayer time at 10am on a Wednesday will incorporate a Lenten devotion. We meet in the home of Judy and Denis Samways. Please let Revd Alison know if you would like to join us.

Churches Together Lent Lunches

These take place in Gatehouse Parish Church each Wednesday during Lent from 18th February through to 25th March. At 12.20pm there will be a short reflection offered in the Church, followed at 12.30pm by a simple soup and bread lunch in the Church Hall. Donations this year will be given to Abernethy Barcaple in Ringford towards the Ukranian children's summer visit.

Lent Study

There will be a weekly study group led by Rev Val Ott that meets in the Parish Church Hall at 11am and in Fleet Valley at 7pm each Thursday to which anyone is welcome to join.

Planning your Visit

New to church? 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at Greyfriars Church (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 11am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you will be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after the service. It is a great way to meet people and find out more about us.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. If you need a large print service book, please ask.

Our Service

The main service begins with a warm welcome from our Priest-in-Charge. Our service of Holy Communion includes hymns accompanied on the organ, bible readings, a sermon, prayers of intercession and responses. If you are a communicant member of another church, you are invited to share Holy Communion with us. Or if you prefer, you can come to the altar for a prayer of blessing.
 

Serving and Volunteering

Once you've settled here with us, if you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team. It's also a great way to get to know more people.
