Brinkley - Burrough Green - Carlton - Dullingham - Stetchworth - Westley Waterless
Welcome to our group of wonderful historic Church of England churches which, although ancient, are very much alive! Our aim is to be an open, welcoming and inclusive Christian community where each person is welcomed and valued and we can share together in God’s love, worship and service.
Please do join us whenever you can, at whichever church you would like to. You will see we have a variety of services on offer throughout the month and special services of healing and remembrance - follow this link to find the current month of services.
At certain times of the year, we also have Christian enquiry courses which can lead to Confirmation if desired. Do come and take a step on the wonderful path of discovery!
Reverend Nikki Mann - Funeral arrangements
Nikki's funeral will be held at 3pm on Thursday 6 May and will be taken by The Right Reverend Stephen Conway, Bishop of Ely. Due to Covid restrictions, only immediate family will be present so please do not attempt to attend or gather at the Church.
If you would like to stand at the roadside along the route, the funeral cortege will leave the Rectory ay 2.35-2.40 pm and will then travel along Stetchworth Road, turning left into Stetchworth High Street and then right into Church Lane. If you need to drive in order to get there please consider where you will park as the High Street is often rather congested. Please do not park or stand in Church Lane beyond the War Memorial as we need to leave space for family cars and would also like to respect the privacy of Nikki's family at such a difficult time. Please remember to be socially distanced.
The service will be live streamed and all parishioners and those who have contacted us from all the different places she touched on her journey through ministry and beyond are welcome to join and view from their homes. The service sheet is attached below.
The link for the service is below and is a Zoom meeting which will be open from 2.45 pm:

Meeting ID: 860 2197 4095
Passcode: 022002
We would like to thank everyone who has sent in memories, thoughts and stories about Nikki - we still ask, of course, that everyone holds her family close in their own thoughts and prayers.
If you require any assistance then email us via this link and we will help with your query. Additionally, you can find contacts for all the Churchwardens on the Parishes Pages and they will also be able to help. We appreciate your patience as we work through any outstanding items and cover existing commitments.
We have opened a page via this link where people can leave their thoughts, memories and messages of condolence. Pages have also been placed in all our Churches where people can leave messages - these will later be bound into one book of condolence which will be passed to Nikki's family at an appropriate time.
