Burrough Green - Brinkley - 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!
Institution and Induction of Virginia, our new Vicar!
We were delighted to welcome Bishop Dagmar, the Acting Bishop of Ely to our Benefice on Tuesday 3 February to induct Revd Virginia Moggridge, as our new Vicar! Joined by her husband, Peter, family and friends and many parishioners and community reps from both our parishes but also Burwell and Three Rivers - the Church was full and it was a wonderful celebration despite the really quite foul weather!
Some photos are below - Virginia is now taking some leave and moving into the Rectory and will take her first services on Sunday 1 March. She is also stepping in to take our Ash Wednesday Service at Carlton on Wed 17 February - we would love to see you at any of our services which are listed via this link.

In Memory of Rev Nikki Mann
