Welcome to our Churches. We are a lively and welcoming group of people of all ages and backgrounds who try to live out Jesus' teaching today.
There are lots of different services and events where we worship God, enjoy time together, study the bible and pray for our world, nation, community and individuals.
We try to live out our faith in the community - have a look at our news page to see what is happening.
We are part of the Lidbrook Benefice of Churches comprising the villages of Box, Colerne, Ditteridge and surrounding areas. Our previous vicar Revd Dr Janet Anderson-MacKenzie has recently moved on to new challenges and we are very much looking forward to Revd Matt Stone joining us early next year.
Matt started training for ordination in 2016 at Trinity College Bristol and served the majority of his curacy in the Woodbridge Group, North Wiltshire. For the last year Matt has been Curate in Charge in the villages of Pucklechurch and Abson also in the Bristol Diocese.
Before ordination Matt studied English Literature and Creative Writing and worked for a few years in the arts including at Greenbelt Festival. Matt then studied Human Rights before working in community development.
Matt says: “I’m delighted to be appointed to this exciting role in these beautiful villages and staying in the Bristol Diocese. I am keen to get started, meet the people in churches and communities and getting to know the area with my children, Reuben, Clara and Kit.
We are blessed to have Revd Clair Southgate as our Ordained Local Minister. Clair can be contacted by email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or phone 01225743970.
Our church is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of adults and children, and takes its responsibility seriously. The arrangements which we have in place, and whom to contact if you have any concerns, are in our Safeguarding Policy.
