Weddings
Getting Married?
Today more than a quarter of all marriages in England between a man and a woman take place in the traditional setting of a Church of England church. You're welcome to marry in church whatever your beliefs, whether or not you are baptised and whether or not you go to church.
Baptisms
Looking to baptise your child?
Parishioners and regular worshippers are welcome welcome to have their children 'christened' in St Mary Magdalene. During the christening service your child will be baptized and with the support of the church, you and godparents, your child begins an amazing journey of faith.
Funerals
Marking the end of a person's life here on earth.
A funeral marks the close of a human life on earth. It is the opportunity for friends and family to express their grief, to give thanks for the life which has now completed its journey in this world.
Daily Devotionals
Daily devotionals come from three sources that you can choose from (or use all!), whether travelling to work, sitting and relaxing during a well deserved break, or making one of them a part of your daily 'quiet time' with God.
Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer and Night Prayer (or Compline) come from the Church of England's Common Worship which provides prayers and readings for different times during the day.
The daily readings are taken from The Revised Common Lectionary which divides the Bible into a three-year cycle of readings, years A, B and C.
Pray As You Go is a Jesuit based, audio resource that can be listened to anywhere.
Morning Prayer

Evening Prayer
Please click this link to be taken to today's Evening Prayer readings and prayers from the Church of England's Common Worship.
Compline
Please click this link to be taken to today's Night Prayer readings and prayers from the Church of England's Common Worship.
The daily readings are taken from The Revised Common Lectionary which divides the Bible into a three-year cycle of readings, years A, B and C. These readings complement the Sunday and festival readings: Thursday through Saturday readings help prepare the reader for the Sunday ahead; Monday through Wednesday readings help the reader reflect on and digest what they heard in worship.
The Church year begins in Advent. This church year, 2017-2018, is year B.
Daily readings from The Revised Common Lectionary
