Welcome to St. Mary the Virgin Bruton

Welcome!

St. Mary's is the parish church of Bruton and seeks to play an active part in the life of this vibrant community. We intend to maintain the best aspects of our tradition but also to find new and imaginative ways to live out the Gospel message of hope which we have received and which we seek to pass on.

We very much hope that you will join us and be part of this, in whatever way you can.

Visiting St Mary's

The church building is open for visiting and prayer from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm daily. If you find the church locked and you would like access, please email wardens@stmarysbruton.org, or leave a voice mail with the church office on 01749 813080.

All Souls Service - Saturday 2nd November, 6.30 pm

 

Prayers of Love and Faith

As part of the Church of England's 'Living in Love and Faith' project, which is an extended consideration of issues relating to sexuality, gender, relationships and marriage, some new prayers have been authorised. These are called Prayers of Love and Faith and are written to be used with couples in same-sex relationships. They are authorised to be used within and as part of a normal Sunday service. This is not a marriage service:  same-sex coupes are currently not able to get married in church.

We would be happy to offer a selection of these prayers during a Sunday service - if you are interested in discussing this, please get in touch with the Rector.

You can find the prayers here: Prayers of Love and Faith
