Come to enjoy Sunday service

COME TO OUR glorious special Sung Evensong Patronal Festival Service, 4pm Sunday 6th July, with tea and a talk afterwards.

Welcome to St Thomas à Becket Church, a place of Christian worship to Almighty God since at least the 12th century.

Open every day, with Sunday sung Eucharist service at 9.45am, St Thomas’ is always ready to welcome you to the presence of God. Take a little time amid the busyness of daily life – be refreshed and renewed in peace.

June – a busy time
Our Vicar writes:
Dear Friends,
June is a busy period in our Christian faith, following Eastertide (the great 50 days of Easter) and the glorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We celebrate the promised Holy Spirit of God given to us in Pentecost, 8th June, followed by Trinity Sunday on the 15th when we celebrate the glorious Trinity of God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Finally, the 19th June is Corpus Christi day, our thanksgiving for the institution of Holy Communion.

All these great events celebrate the wonder and mystery of our faith and redemption by Christ – God created us by his power and redeemed us by his love.  God came to us in Christ Jesus to redeem us by his death and resurrection, then sending his Holy Spirit to be with us.
Within our world of today, no matter its troubles, doubts and stresses of life, we can all take great comfort from our risen Lord being with us daily and as we walk along the Emmaus journey of life and path of faith.
With very best wishes and love, Fr Herbert
