Worship
We aim to be a traditional ‘middle-of-the-road’ church
The community worships regularly in both St Paul’s and the Fell Churches, and St Paul’s is open daily for visitors. All are welcome to come inside to look round, for private prayer or meditation, or to enter names on our prayer tree. These names are mentioned in the intercessions at our main services. Copies of this weeks Pew Sheet and Readings can be found in the What’s On section.

Other regular services at St Paul’s include Harvest Festival followed by a Parish Lunch; All Souls Service; and a Civic Remembrance Day service for the town. The Patronal Festival is celebrated in January followed by lunch. There is a full series of services through Holy Week to Easter Day (see photos for Easter 2018). At Christmas, there is traditionally a Christingle and Crib Service on Christmas Eve, and a Midnight Eucharist. Services for the young families in 2016 have included special events at Candlemas and Palm Sunday.
A recent addition has been a special afternoon service at the Fell Church for those people who receive Communion each month in their own homes because they are unable to get to church. However, three times a year – Christmas, Easter and in the summer – transport is arranged to bring them to the Fell Church for a simple service, followed by afternoon tea.
