Welcome to St Paul’s Stockingford!
Whether you are new here or have been around for a long time, you are so welcome!
God loves everyone and so we try to do that too!
At St Paul’s, you are welcome if you are single, partnered, married, divorced, heterosexual, LGBTQIA+ or non-binary. You are welcome if you are young, old or anywhere in between. (We particularly welcome small children and promise not to say “ssssh!”) You are welcome if you are neurodiverse, are living with mental illness or have a disability (and yes, your assistance dog is very welcome too!) You are welcome whatever land or culture you call home. You are welcome if you are a Christian, a seeker, a doubter, a friend from a different faith family or have no faith at all. We cannot promise that we will always get things right, but we are always willing to learn.
Come as you are!
Whether you’ve never been to church before or have been coming for many years, you are very welcome. Our services are open, friendly and relaxed, and we hope you will feel at home from the moment you arrive.
Our worship usually includes prayer, singing, Bible readings, a short talk and communion. After the service, everyone is invited to stay for a chat over a hot drink, giving us a chance to get to know one another better.
