Church Services

The three churches have different styles of worship to suit different tastes but are united by one faith.

This Sunday's services are listed in the box on the right. You can also download the Dates for your Diary from the parish magazine on the Talks & resources page.

New Service Times

From 7th September there will be new service times at Ockley and Okewood Churches.

At St Margaret's Ockley there will now be a 9.30am Morning Service every week.

At St John the Baptist Okewood there will be an 11am Service: Family service as usual on the 1st Sunday of the month; Morning Service on the 2nd, 3rd and 5th Sundays; Holy Communion on the 4th Sunday of the month.

As before the style of worship at St Margaret's will be traditional, and at Okewood it will now be modern at all services.

There is parking in the Church Lane, followed by a short walk up the hill, if you have trouble getting up the hill, there is parking beside the Ark (up the hill from the church) for the infirm or disabled. If you are a regular, please consider newcomers and leave the spaces nearest Church free.

This also means a change to Megazone times at the Ark Okewood for all children, also starting at 11am.

This is in addition to the recent changes at Holy Trinity, Forest Green: The Healing Service has move to the third Sunday of the month, and a new Evening Service has started on the 4th Sunday, both at 6pm. There will no longer be an 8.30am communion on the third Sunday.

Modern
For a modern style of worship come to St John's Okewood at 10.30am Sunday mornings - once a month there's a family service (1st sunday) and either a Morning Service or Communion on other Sundays. A state of the art projector and screen were installed at the start of June 08, for projecting words and films.

There is also an evening service and Healing Service at 6pm, Holy Trinity Forest Green, on the 3rd and 4th Sundays of the month respectively.

Traditional
If you prefer a more traditional style of worship, for early risers every Sunday there is an 8.30am Communion Service at either St. Margaret's Ockley or Holy Trinity Forest Green using the book of common prayer.

Or there is Matins at 10.30am on the first Sunday of the month, also St. Margarets Ockley. **Please see above for changes from September.

At different points in the year there are special services (such as Easter & Christmas).
