Service Pattern
As a church community we meet each Sunday, Wednesday and Friday to worship together in one of our three churches - St James the Less in Pangbourne, St Laurance in Tidmarsh, and St Nicholas in Sulham.
​
Our services enable people to worship together in a variety of ways. Many people participate in them, leading worship and prayers, reading scripture, and serving at communion. Coffee is served at the back of the church once the worship has finished. We also hold seasonal and annual services and all or our church services are open to everyone.
