Life Events
Here for you in the highs and lows of life
Throughout its history, the Church of England has tried to connect with people as they reach major milestones in their lives.
The Church recognises that all change, even positive events like a birth or marriage, can cause stress as we adjust to our new role and question our values, priorities and belief systems.
The church offers a variety of services to mark the birth of a child, to celebrate a marriage, to mark the beginning of a journey of faith and to commemorate a life that has ended.
Baptism
Baptism is a unique, special celebration, thanking God for the gift of life and publicly acknowledging God's love. In baptism we acknowledge that we all need to turn from the darkness of evil and make a new start with God. Baptism is a sacrament: a visible sign of God's love
Weddings
If you've chosen a church wedding, we would love to help you create a service which is meaningful and personal to you.
Funerals
An opportunity for friends and family to express their grief, to give thanks for the life which has now completed its journey in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping. you.
