If you are thinking about coming along to one of our services or events, take a look at our normal service times and double check with the calendar. If you're not sure what to expect, then don't worry, you'll get a friendly welcome, but we promise not to ambush you.

We have Sunday morning & evening services throughout the month across the three churches of our Benefice, with a wide range of service style, providing opportunity to worship and meet up. Our informal service in Berkeley on the first Sunday of each month, is suitable for all ages and enjoys contemporary worship in a relaxed atmosphere. The more traditional worship services with an organ and sometimes a choir, provide space for reflection in worship. If you're feeling sociable, tea, coffee and cake are served after our morning services in Berkeley.

Please note, there is very limited parking in the vicinity of the church (street parking normally available on Sundays in the Market Square and Salter Street).

Planning to visit because of an interest in the church building and it's history? You will find some information here. Guide books are available in the church, which is generally open during daylight hours. We are a stone's throw from Berkeley Castle and the Jenner Museum. We hope you enjoy your visit.
