Welcome!
We are a friendly, local church at the heart of the community of Thrybergh.
Whether you’ve been to church your whole life or you’re just curious, you’re very welcome here. We’re an ordinary group of people from Thrybergh and the surrounding area, learning about Jesus, supporting one another, and serving our community.
You can expect friendly services with music, prayers and no pressure to join in, with tea and coffee afterwards. As well as worship, there’s loads of other things going on during the week and we’d love to see you.
Come as you are and join us in worship every Sunday morning at 10 a.m.
… All are welcome!

Safeguarding
The parish of Thrybergh St Leonard is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs.
All clergy and Readers within the Church of England receive safeguarding training and require record-check clearance certificates as a normal part of their ministry. Our lay volunteers who work with young people and vulnerable adults also go through the safeguarding process. This ensures that our congregation is a safe place for young and vulnerable people to visit.
