Services at All Saints
Sunday Services
Our regular pattern has three services each Sunday: a quiet celebration of Holy Communion at 8:00 am, using the Book of Common Prayer; our main morning service at 10:00 am using modern (CW) texts; and an evening service at 6:30 pm. Within that we have a monthly cycle embracing a variety of styles of worship as follows:
1st Sunday |

This pattern changes slightly at special times of the year, such as Christmas and Easter. The Fifth Sunday evening service is usually Choral Evensong but may be a Service of Healing, a Praise Service or some other form. You can check which in our diary. Full details of all Sunday services, current and historic, are available in the detailed service lists.
Children
There is a crèche in the meeting room at the back of church, along with activity bags for younger children. On the First Sunday we all come to the Family Service at 10.00 a.m. which is a shorter service with special activities for children. Similarly the Family Eucharist on the Third Sunday is designed with children in mind.We also run a monthly 'Messy Church' with arts and crafts activities for all the family followed by tea and a short act of worship in St John's Hall from 4:00 p.m. usually on the third Sunday of each month.
Weekday services
Holy Communion is celebrated on Thursdays at 11:00 am.
