We are a friendly, welcoming church with an active congregation and a strong music tradition which ranges from a music group through to a traditional church choir. We maintain strong links with the other churches in our Benefice and also with the Free Church in the village, with whom we share a service once a month. We try and get together for a Sunday lunch once every two months in the village hall, and this can be a good opportunity to get to know each other (this is however currently suspended). We take an active part in village life, and the church is still central to the village.
