Regular Sunday and weekday services

At St Margaret's we follow a monthly cycle of services, and as St Margaret's is the only church serving Warnham we aim to provide something for everyone, from the traditional to the modern.

As well as these regular services we celebrate some feast days on weekdays, usually with an evening Eucharist at 7.30pm. Scroll down for fuller details.

For details of children's activities during the morning service, go to Sunday Club.

The monthly pattern is as follows:

10.30am Holy Communion  - Our regular weekday said Eucharist according to the Book of Common Prayer

1st Sunday of the month

8am Holy Communion  - A traditional, said Eucharist using the Book of Common Prayer

10am Morning Worship  - A 'service of the word' that does not include Communion, with contemporary songs and hymns.

2nd Sunday of the month

10am Parish Communion  - Eucharist led by the robed choir and organ, in contemporary language (Common Worship)

3rd Sunday of the month

4th Sunday of the month

5th Sunday of the month

10am Parish Communion - Eucharist led by the robed choir and organ, in contemporary language (Common Worship or occasionally BCP)

6.30pm Choral Evensong - traditional BCP evensong with sung responses, canticles and anthem led by our robed choir 

A quiet space early in the morning. A traditional, said service using the Book of Common Prayer. 

Length: 35 minutes.

The heart of our parish life, with music led by the robed choir and organ; preaching is strong and lively; and the Eucharist is celebrated using Common Worship.

Tea, coffee and squash are served for everyone after the service.

Length: 1 hour, 5 minutes.

With music from our worship band, this is a lively service for all ages, with opportunities for our young people to contribute and lead the worship.

Length: about 55 minutes.

This is a service of the word, and does not include communion. The music is generally contemporary and prayer time can be creative. This service can be an opportunity to engage together with scripture and prayer in a more informal setting than our regular 10am Eucharist. Length: about 55 minutes

This said service has proved particularly useful to older people who value a later start or a shorter service. It is followed by tea and coffee and is a pleasantly sociable midweek pause for worship.

Length: 35 minutes.
