Welcome to our website
We are a family of churches in the Vale of Evesham that seek to live out our Christian faith in all that we do. Inspired by the Gospel of Christ and guided by the Holy Spirit, we aim to be a loving and welcoming presence in our villages, open to people of all ages as we grow together in faith. We are called by God to worship, pray and reach out to those in need, so that everyone in our communities might come to feel the love of God.

Collect for Seventh Sunday of Easter
O God the King of glory,
you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ
with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven:
we beseech you, leave us not comfortless,
but send your Holy Spirit to strengthen us
and exalt us to the place where our Saviour Christ is gone before,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen

free phone line for accessing worship
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has launched a free national phone line as a simple new way to bring worship and prayer into people’s homes for those who are not yet ready to attend church.
Daily Hope, which is available from today, offers music, prayers and reflections as well as full worship services from the Church of England at the end of a telephone line.
The line – which is available 24 hours a day on 0800 804 8044 – has been set up particularly with those unable to join online church service.
If you know of someone who does not have online access and might like to use this service, please do pass on the number.
