Currently there is an on‑line Sunday
service at 10:00 every Sunday morning. Please contact
the church office if you have not had an invitation and wish
to participate. |
There are activities and stories to follow in
the church yard. Follow the Easter Trail
and see the Easter story come to life. |
The church at the heart of the
community St Mary’s – the Church of England parish church of
Thatcham – is part of the Thatcham Team Ministry which also includes St Barnabas Church.
There has been a church on the site of St Mary’s Thatcham for 1,000 years and
for countless generations the church has been at the heart of community life. Our worship follows the usual Anglican pattern and we
have a choir and organ but there is informality about our worship which makes
everyone feel welcome. Many parents comment on how good St Mary’s is with young
children – noise is not a problem! So St Mary’s is an open and welcoming worshipping
community, a gathering of ordinary people seeking to deepen their relationship
with God, with each other, and with the wider world. |
Now that another
lockdown is in place, we have to take care of each other. We are still learning
how Christ can be present in our homes, our lives and our hearts, and not just
when we meet together in a building. We are active on social media including Facebook and are also trying to keep in
contact by phone and email.
If you know of
people in need, or if you would like a conversation, please do get in touch
with our clergy - we will be pleased to hear from
you.
We continue to
pray for our community. We do not know when we will be able to re-open and have
no definite plans or dates in mind - but we will definitely let you know as
soon as we do
