St Mary's Old Swinford

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WEBSITE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION. SOME SECTIONS MAY BE INCOMPLETE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

Welcome to St Mary's Church website. Like most churches, St Mary's is far from being just a local building in which to worship and pray together. It is also a thriving centre of Christian activities, all of which contribute in many different ways to the management of the church and extending the work of our Lord in the parish and elsewhere.

We try to involve people in a variety of ways, especially those who are new to the area - you will always find a warm welcome here. If you wish to have your child baptised, be baptised yourself or prepare for confirmation you will find information on this website to explain how you go about this.

We are a popular venue for weddings and our weddings section will answer any questions you may have relating to booking and organising your wedding service.

We also give details of all the exciting events and activities which take place a St Mary's, as well as some interesting information relating to our history and how to go about tracing your family through our registers and graveyard.
