Sunday Services
What kind of services?
The 10 a.m. service is usually Common Worship Holy Communion, but we sometimes have baptisms or other events during that service. Every other month the service in Stratford St. Mary is a Morning Praise service.
The evening service in the Benefice may be Choral Evensong, a said Book of Common Prayer Evening Prayer with a short sermon or a contemporary reflective Sacred Space. Follow us on Facebook for the latest updates.
10 a.m. and 5 p.m. (October-March) or 6.30 p.m. (April-September) services rotate around the parishes. In principle, the pattern is as follows (but please note that the schedule may vary - especially in December - depending on special events, so please check individual dates):
1st Sunday 10am Stratford St Mary (SSM)
2nd Sunday 10am Higham
3rd Sunday 10am Holton St Mary
4th Sunday 10am Raydon + SSM Family Hour with refreshments and activities for children in the Parish Room (green building in the middle of the village).
Services on 5th Sundays move around the benefice. In 2024 the 5th Sundays fall on 31st March (Easter Day), 30th June, 29th September & 29th December and we will be meeting in our churches around the benefice.
Sometimes we make changes to our usual pattern for special services or visiting speakers. and we will advertise those as far in advance as possible.
