Regular services happen at 11am on Sundays
Everyone is welcome to all that happens in Thorney Abbey.
We do have a ramp, children's areas with books and toys, microphones and heating.
There is usually refreshments after the service, often featuring cake.
There is usually a service book with all the words in (you speak the bits in bold), a hymn book and a notice sheet with the readings on the back. If you want a blessing instead of bread and wine at communion, bring up a book.
If you are feeling anxious but would like to come, please let us know how we can help.
