We are an active town centre Church in the heart of Mid Suffolk within the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich.
The Church is very much alive and getting on with our mission of ‘letting people know about the love Jesus Christ‘.
We worship together on Sunday mornings at 10am and we also live stream via YouTube so you can watch live or watch a replay.
Daily Hope offers music, prayers and reflections as well as full worship services from the Church of England at the end of a telephone line. The line – which is available 24 hours a day on 0800 804 8044 – has been set up particularly with those unable to join online church services during the period of restrictions in mind.
