The Barony of Burgh by Sands is currently in a vacancy as our previous Priest in Charge - Rev Tudor Boddam-Whetham has been appointed as Priest in Charge of St John's London Road and his induction service was held in November. 

​

Our pattern of services continue as usual - a copy of the services can be downloaded from the panel opposite as well as in the Parish Magazine which can also be downloaded. 

​

Anyone wishing to arrange a Baptism, Marriage or Funeral while we have no Priest-in-Charge is warmly encouraged to contact their local Churchwarden (please see the list in the Parish Magazine)

 

We have a friendly retired Vicar with whom we can put you in touch and he will be very happy to be of assistance.

The Mission of our churches is

‘Helping everyone enjoy life in all its fullness through being disciples of Jesus’

Life is best lived together, and with our maker … but as we’re all different we have a variety of ways listed below (in addition to Sunday services listed on the webpages for each church building) which we pray may help you explore/join/continue with us the best journey through this life and beyond – with God himself.
