AT ALL SAINTS', we describe our church as 'a church rich in spirituality; a church of faith; a church of prayer and praise.
Which is what we are -
the oldest Christian foundation in the town, with
a wonderful prayerful tradition EXTENDING BACK 1000
YEARS, very much based on the heritage of the
Anchoresses,
who prayed, lived and died in an
Anchorhold or enclosure in
the church. |

'YET, MORE IMPORTANT STILL, WE ARE, a church of love, dignity and respect; a church for all people, in all ages'. It is sad that people sometimes feel 'unaccepted' and 'turned away' - perhaps because of their lifestyle or their sexual orientation, mental illness, social status, or simply because they are different and don't quite fit in.
All Saints is a 'space' apart from the 'madness' - the change and chaos of the world - where humour and laughter have a place, together with thoughtfulness, kindness and care We are, above all, A CHURCH FOR PEOPLE, WHOEVER THEY ARE, WHEREVER THEY ARE.
