Whether you come to worship, or to enjoy the peace, or to marvel at the beauty of the building, welcome to Axbridge Church.
Our Churches Are Open!
The Churchwardens and PCCs of our three churches have opened our church buildings for public worship and private prayer, following the Government guidelines on hygiene and distancing.
Face Coverings should now be worn by all those attending a place of worship, as in shops and public places.
We have a mix of normal services, online services using the Zoom platform and combined services using Zoom with a small congregation in Axbridge church. If you would like to come, please let a churchwarden know. Zoom services will continue to be offered alongside whatever services there are in church.
Axbridge church is open for private prayer on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 2-6pm. St Leonard’s Shipham is open daily from 9am-4pm. Rowberrow Church is open by appointment, please contact Jane Gunn.
August Services
Our Sunday and weekday services are listed below. Where services include online access, Zoom will be available for about half an hour before each service so you can get set up and iron-out any hiccups!
