Who We Are

St Mary the Virgin, Eccleston is a welcoming parish church at the heart of village life, seeking to share the love of Christ with our community in ways that are faithful, accessible, and joyful. Rooted in the worship and the traditions of the Church of England, we value reverent worship, thoughtful preaching, and warm hospitality.

We are a church for all ages and backgrounds, serving the village through regular worship, pastoral care, schools work, community events, and the occasional offices which mark life’s important moments. Alongside valuing our heritage and liturgical life, we are committed to finding fresh and engaging ways to communicate the Christian faith in today’s world.

St Mary’s is a friendly and forward-looking parish, with a desire to grow in prayer, discipleship, and mission, and to be a visible and hopeful Christian presence within the community.
