Welcome to our website. We’d like to thank you for popping by and take this opportunity to invite you to join us for our public worship services in the coming days. They are open to all and all are welcome.
Sunday worship is a key expression of our love for God and we believe that when we gather together, Jesus is with us and among us. This coming weekend we have services in both of our churches and, even if you’ve never been before, you are sure to find a warm welcome.

Christ Church
We would be delighted to welcome you to Christ Church this coiming Sunday (13 October) when we have a special service thinking about the significance of Godparents – those spiritual mothers and fathers who pray for their Godchildren as well as supporting and encouraging them in the Christian faith. Whether you are a Godchild or Godparent, or just curious, come along and join the fun. This special service with tea and coffee available throughout begins at 11am. Just turn up a few minutes before and find a seat. If it’s your first time, someone will be available to help if you need it.

St Peter’s Church
At St Peter’s this Sunday (13 October) we have a service of Holy Communion – sharing of bread and wine in remembrance of Jesus sacrifice for us – that begins at 9.30am. Turn up a few minutes before and find a seat. The service will use the traditional language of the Book of Common Prayer.

Later in the afternoon, at 4pm, will be our Senior Sunday tea. A short half-hour service of hymns, prayers and scripture followed by a sandwich tea. This service is especially for over sixties and you would be most welcome if you think you qualify.

REVIVAL SUNDAY
Things are a little different this Sunday (11th August) as the village of Mountsorrel celebrates the Mountsorrel Revival – an old-style festival of fun in the heart of the village.
There will be no service at Christ Church today. Instead, the two Churches – Christ Church & St Peter’s Church – will join together for a single act of worship starting at 9.30am in St Peter’s Church. During this service, which will be led by Revd Colin Resch, we will share Holy Communion together and pray for all of the events and activities taking place throughout the village. There will be refreshments served immediately after the service with the opportunity to talk together.

Our part in REVIVAL
As the day progresses, we will be joining in with the events of Revival by joining the midday parade through the village as part of the Churches Together in Mountsorrel. We will also be offering food and drinks in the Churchyard throughout the afternoon as well as allowing people the chance to ‘Have-a-go Bell Ringing’. Revival day also marks the start of our Summer 24 week of activities so there will be a pop-up art gallery in St Peter’s and a display of all the events to come during the week.
