Coming soon - a Celebration of Wedding Dresses Web site picture 

Put the date in your diary to join us at St Mary’s between 10am and 6pm on Saturday 15th and also between 12 noon and 4.30pm on Sunday 16th July for our ‘Celebration of Wedding Dresses’.

We will be showcasing a selection of wedding dresses from across the decades, loaned to us by past St Mary’s brides and members of our congregation. These will be complimented by beautiful floral displays and assorted wedding memorabilia. Come and see how bridal style has changed over the decades and enjoy the beauty of St Mary’s church decorated in full wedding style.

In addition to the exhibition, there will be refreshments available throughout the day, a raffle, musical performances, bell ringing and a children’s corner with fun activities for the little ones.

On Saturday morning, there will be a flower arranging demonstration at 11am and on Sunday, please do join us for a ‘Songs of Praise’ service at 3pm featuring wedding music and favourite wedding hymns!

Cost of entry to the exhibition will be £2.00 to include a programme containing the story behind each of the dresses. Children under 16 may attend for free when accompanied by an adult.

More details and a full programme for the weekend will be added to the website in due course, so please do check back nearer the time.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Welcome! 

The following information is specifically for those planning to visit us for the first time, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at St Mary's Church in Church Lane, Wendover, for our two main Sunday services each week, which start at 9.00am and 10.45am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you will be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

Plan your journey

Accessibility

There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There are disabled toilets in the Church Centre, which you can find through the door towards the front of the church on the left hand side.

Our Main Sunday Services

Our 9am Holy Communion is a more traditional service, including music and hymns in an established style but using up-to-date language. It will probably appeal to those who are used to more formal Anglican worship.  There is no provision for children at this service.

Our 10.45am Sunday Worship services follow a more informal style with contemporary worship songs. These services are typically most suitable for families. Children of all ages are very welcome and we have activities for younger children at the back of church. On the second and fourth Sundays of each month, we share Communion at this service. The first and third Sundays do not include Communion and are designed to be rich in teaching and learning for people of all ages - from 2 to 92!

You can find details of our other services here.

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out our Church Life section on this website to see if there’s a group that you'd like to join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church, why not sign up to serve on a team. We are always looking for volunteers to get involved in different aspects of our work.
