About us
We are a friendly, welcoming church community, set in the beautiful North Norfolk countryside. We are one church, even though we meet in eight buildings! Most of the members of the church family travel to wherever the service is being held, so we are together every Sunday. We would love you to join us!
Our services are at 10am, lasting for around an hour. We sing hymns and songs, pray and listen to God's Word from the Bible. We usually have Holy Communion (also known as the Eucharist) as part of our services, and you are welcome to join in as much or as little as you wish. We serve refreshments after all our services, and all are welcome to stay for these.
We are delighted to offer Baptisms and Weddings, and consider it a privilege to help families with the arrangements for Funerals. Please get in touch if you would like to enquire about any of these, or if you would welcome a pastoral conversation or visit; I'm always happy to drink tea and chat!
With my love and prayers,
​
The Revd David Chamberlin, Rector.
