Sundays at St George's
8am Holy Communion
A celebration of Holy Communion in the traditional form found in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. Quiet, peaceful and contemplative.
10.30am Sung Mass
& Junior Church
This is our main act of worship each Sunday, and it is a moving spiritual experience engaging all the senses and bringing together people of many cultures and generations to praise God.
We follow traditional Anglican liturgy and sing most parts of the Mass, along with hymns and chants.
At different times of year, symbolic acts such as the use of water, candles or incense express our joy and adoration in a tangible way.
If you are new to liturgical worship, you will find this a friendly and welcoming way in to church life.
Children are welcomed to Junior Church, provided with an engaging activity, or encouraged to take leading roles in worship.
We follow every 10.30am service with a time of stimulating conversation over tea and coffee.
5pm Evensong
A simple, peaceful and traditional service, according to the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. Opportunities for the congregation to sing hymns and chants. In the winter, the service is by candlelight.
Weekdays at St George's
A small group gathers in church at 9am Tuesday-Friday for Morning Prayer. Everyone is welcome.
A short, simple Mass is celebrated on Thursdays at 11.30am. On the second Thursday of the month this is followed by a free shared lunch to which all are welcome.
On the special festivals of the year (such as Ash Wednesday or Epiphany) we usually celebrate a Sung Mass. Please check our calendar for Mass times.

What will it be like?
You will be warmly welcomed by a guide at the church door. You'll meet people of many different backgrounds, from around the world and across the generations. You will find St George's a friendly and caring community.
What style of worship will I experience?
The worship at St George's is in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England, drawing on a range of styles. It can be formal and reverent but it is relaxed. We enjoy the high holy moments but we also have a sense of humour. What matters most to us is worshipping God and getting to know and love God better. Wear your usual clothes; come as you are.
Can I bring children?
Yes! Junior Church runs at the 10.30am service. Children are welcome in all aspects of church life. Please don't ever worry about the noises they make or what they do! We love to see them.
Young people aged 11-18 are encouraged to develop as Christian leaders, including serving, reading and helping younger children. We regularly connect 11-18 year olds to Diocesan youth events.
Is St George's an accessible church?
There is step-free access at the south entrance and ample space for wheelchairs inside church. Our automated doors enable independent access to church. We have a fully accessible toilet.
