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 an
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! 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. |
