What is a circuit service?

This is when all the churches have the opportunity to worship together.

What is a Pilgrim Service ?

This is a project to celebrate the uniqueness of each church in the circuit.

It is hoped that a greater sense of unity and identity will be created within the circuit and so enrich our life together

The next pilgrim service will be at Wingrave 28th April at 10am

then the following month at Cuddington 26th may at 5.30pm.
