Merry Christmas!
Here's some socially distant festive cheer from Kath, with her trio Christmas Carols Cello Medley.

​I am delighted to say that King’s Sutton Parish Church is now open again for private prayer and for services.

You are welcome to attend our weekly Mass which takes place at 11am every Sunday.
The building is usually open during daylight hours for private prayer. We have put in place measures to ensure that we are ‘Covid secure’, and would ask that your follow current Government guidance regarding social distancing, hand washing and face coverings. Weddings, funerals and baptisms may also take place in church subject to certain restrictions aimed to limit the spread of the Coronavirus.
To discuss these, or any other matters, please do not hesitate to contact men at
​The Vicarage on 811364 or fathermatthew.r@icloud.com

Wishing you every blessing, Father Matthew https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4taUgcGkeU

The earliest reference to King's Sutton is in the story of Saint Rumbold, who was born here in 662.

The building has Norman elements and was completed in the 14th Century. Its finest feature is the tower and spire, rising to 198 feet. It is one of the finest spires in the country.  It is normally open during daylight hours.

The Church has been in the Anglo-Catholic tradition since the late 19th Century. The PCC has requested alternative Episcopal oversight, and the parish is in the care of the Bishop of Richborough. All are welcome whatever their views on these matters.  The Parochial Church Council (PCC) has produced a statement of our purpose, values, and growth plan which can be viewed here.

There are varieties of services, but most are formal, traditional in style with excellent music. Our regular pattern of services can be seen here, and a detailed calendar can be seen here.

​Our regular newsletter can be viewed here.

A history of the church can be viewed here.
