Change to Service Pattern in 2013
Picture, Congregation
Dymock is one of 9 churches in the 'United Benefice' of the Leadon Vale, looked after by our Ministry Team of Ordained and Lay ministers. Since one of our Associate Priests retired at the end of September 2012, we now only have 4 priests in the benefice, so our previous pattern of Services is no longer possible. (Return to top)

By swopping some of the current Services to a different Sunday, we have managed to keep all the churches having all the Services they had before, except some will now be on a different Sunday in the month. At Dymock we will swop the Service of 'Holy Communion and Fun Club' with the 'Family Service', so the Family Service will now be on the second Sunday each month* and Fun Club on the fourth Sunday, both still at 9:30am.
