Christchurch & St. Mary the Virgin, English Bicknor
Vertical Divider
Christchurch Forest of Dean was the first parish Church in the historic Royal Forest and has been a centre of worship and prayer for over 200 years. ​St Mary the Virgin is a Grade 1 listed Norman church, dating from 1100, standing in an oval churchyard of Saxon origins.
​
​Both churches offer regular worship and pastoral care for the whole community and welcome visitors at any time as both churches are open every day. We have a great mix of service types and worship across our parishes. As well as holding more traditional services, we also hold informal Cafe and Messy Church services. All are welcome at our services and at any time for prayer or pastoral support.

Our place in the Worldwide Church...

As Anglicans, our benefice lies within the Forest South Deanery in the Diocese of Gloucester, which is part of the wider Church of England. Our national church forms one of the many provinces in the global Anglican Communion, which stretches over 165 countries worldwide.

To find other Church of England parishes, visit A Church Near You, which lists every church in the Church of England and provides maps, contact details and additional information.

Safeguarding

Our Churches take their duty and obligation to protect all extremely seriously. If you have any concerns around the welfare of a child or adult with vulnerability, the first person to speak to is a member of our safeguarding team. You can contact Andy or Pam via email: pamela-spooner@sky.com.

You can also read our Safeguarding Policy.

Information about safeguarding arrangements in the Diocese of Gloucester is available on the Diocesan website. This page includes contact details for the Diocesan Safeguarding Team.
