Welcome to St Mary's, Attleborough
A Church has stood on the site of St Mary's since Saxon times. Today the Church building continues to be a centre for the community as well as a place of pilgrimage, worship and prayer. St Mary's is open every day from 8.30am to 5pm, and often longer. You are very welcome to come and explore the Church, to sit in the quiet or to worship with us.
We are pleased to welcome many people from our community for Baptisms and Weddings in the church each year and play a part in commending the departed to God through Funeral Services.
Sunday services are at 8am, 10am and 6.30pm. We also have services every day.
Sunday Club meets for children during the 10am service every other week in term time, together with a creche for little ones. On all other Sundays there are children's activities at the back of the church. Come and join us.
