Services

Our three churches offer a range of service styles each Sunday.  Our regular services include: said and sung Holy Communion; All Age Worship; and service of the Word.  Special services are held to celebrate major festivals such as Christmas, Easter, Harvest etc. and several times a year the three parishes worship together in a joint Benefice service.

You are also welcome to join us for a chat over a cup of coffee after each service.

HOLY WEEK AND EASTER SERVICES

Palm Sunday 14 April – we shall be reading the Passion Narrative at our services. This is the story of Jesus’ arrest, trial and crucifixion. It is moving to read it all in one go, and a fitting start to Holy Week. We shall be looking for volunteers to take part in this reading.

Maundy Thursday – 18 April at 7.30 pm  Service of Holy Communion, foot-washing and stripping of the altar at Ruishton Church. At this service, we remember our Lord’s last night spent with his disciples where he washed their feet and commanded them to remember him by sharing bread and wine together. This is what we shall be doing at this service. It is a prayerful and moving start to the Easter weekend.

Good Friday 19 April

We share in a joint service for all our three churches with Creech St Michael Baptist Church at 10.30 am. This is a reflective service on the meaning of the cross. Every year we share this service with Creech Baptist Church and this year it’s their turn to lead and host it, and my turn to provide the reflection. Please come and join in on this important service in the church’s year.

Gleaners is an informal group of people who come together once a month to worship in new and exciting ways, to reflect on the Bible, to share in fellowship and support each other in life and in our faith journeys!  We meet on the second Sunday of each month at 7:30pm. Everyone welcome!!

April 14^th – Creech Meeting Room

Gleaners was started by Rev’d Julia Curtis and our foundations are firmly rooted on  the Bible book of Ruth and the themes that run through it. This evening we will have the opportunity to watch the film ‘Book of Ruth’.
