A VERY WARM WELCOME TO OUR PARISH CHURCH.
St Mary’s is an Anglican Church at the heart of the community in Cheveley. We are a focus for worship and local community activity. We extend a warm welcome to all and trust that within our walls you will find peace and a sense of the presence of God. Our aim is to be an open, welcoming and inclusive Christian community where each person is welcomed and valued; where we can all share together in God’s love, praise and service. Please join us in our various acts of worship.
This leaflet is produced as a guide to our activities. Please feel free to take one with you.
