Festival Services
Come and be part of St George’s Church as we worship and explore our faithA church where everyone can find a home
Our Festival Services are a place for those for whom faith is something that they have lived out for many years, and also for those who are coming to explore, ask questions, and reflect on what the Christian faith might mean for their lives.
We often refer to our Christian faith as a ‘journey’ and wherever you are on that path, do feel that this is a place that you can be at home in.
Various locations
During the year we have a number of special services known as ‘Festival Services’.
Back in September 2022, the queues to pay respects to the late Queen reached to 25 hours.
There were many reasons why people joined The Queue, but one thing united them – in the words of a famous footballer, it was something that “was meant to be shared”. Festival Services are one of those times that are meant to be shared; a moment that brings us together not only with those around us, but also with those who have gone before us, and those who will come after us. They are sometimes very modern, sometimes deep with symbolism and tradition – so do come, be part of it and share the experience with others.
These range from the obvious – Easter, Harvest, Remembrance and a whole host of traditional Christmas services, to the not so obvious – a Memorial Service, a Pop-Up Nativity, a Pet Service, the Blessing of the Bags and many more!
Do keep an eye on our website and social media channels for more information.

Special Needs?
We know it can be daunting going to a new place if you or someone you know or are responsible for, have special needs. We are committed to making our church as inclusive as possible, so please do get in touch to discuss how we might enable St George’s to be a place for you.
First time?
We know that joining a new group can be hard, especially when you’ve not been there before or don’t know anyone.
Please be assured that nearly everyone starts off in the same boat, and that we are very relaxed and go out of our way to make you feel quickly at home.
If you are feeling particuarly anxious, and would like to meet a ‘friendly face’ before going in, or perhaps have a quick phone call to check everything out, do get in touch here and we can easily arrange it.
