About St. Mary's Church, Ashley
Our church is here for those who have need of it. It is a place where anyone can come and talk to God, feel his presence, share with him their hopes and fears and give thanks.
The church is open daily for all those who want to drop in for prayer or just need space for quiet reflection. Come and experience a peace you had forgotten existed.
