St Mary's has stood at the heart of our village for almost 1000 years, and there have been many changes within the community and the Church in that time.
One thing which never changes however, is the good news of God's love, shown most fully through his son Jesus Christ, and we seek to celebrate that love in our worship and share it through our care for others.
Our aim at St Mary's is to be a welcoming Church to people of all ages and backgrounds and to be a living and active church within the community. www.stmaryschurchnorthiam.co.uk
