Welcome to All Saints' Parish Church, Leamington Spa
growing community, generosity, holiness

All Saints is the historic Parish Church for the town and all its people. We have an open and inclusive tradition, and welcome married, partnered (civil or otherwise) and single, LGBT+ and straight people of diverse ages, backgrounds, nationalities, and abilities (including children). Whether you're a lifelong, devout Christian, an atheist, an agnostic, a searcher after truth, or just an 'ordinary' person, we invite you to come.

Opening Arrangements 
We will next be open to the public on Sunday 5 July for a service at 10.30am.

Places are limited due to social distancing, but we expect to be able to accommodate everyone who wants to come and worship.

The service will consist of the first part of the Communion service, up to the end of the prayers, followed by the Lord's Prayer and the Blessing - this form of service will be familiar to regulars. (We will re-introduce Holy Communion when it is safe and we are properly equipped to do so.) The service will be live-streamed if we are able to. Those attending will need to bring their own order of service (ideally on an electronic device), follow it on the projector screen, or use the words from memory, as we will not be handing out paper. Hand sanitizing, social distancing, etc will of course apply. The Urquhart Room will be closed but toilet facilities will be available in the Prior's Room (South Porch).

​It will be lovely to see at least some familiar faces again!

Service details are here.

#BlackLivesMatter
Fr Christopher writes: We were appalled at the murder of George Floyd, and deeply concerned at the evidence of racism in our own country. We stand in solidarity with those who experience racism in any form, and pray for a just and fully inclusive society. We also recognise that the sin of racism is present, consciously or unconsciously, in the life of the Church in general, and that we need to work harder at All Saints in particular to love our neighbour. We undertake to raise awareness and educate ourselves and one another more fully; to repent where we have been complicit in wrong attitudes or behaviour, or merely silent; and to speak out for truth and justice in church and community alike.  

COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

The Vicar is available for funerals and these can now be held at the crematorium, at the graveside, or in church, with a limit on numbers attending. We would also be pleased to arrange memorial services in church in due course.

Church weddings are once again permitted, with a limit on numbers attending set to 30 and other restrictions, such as no singing.

​Further opportunities for prayer and worship can be found on the Church of England website.

Keep us, good Lord,
under the shadow of your mercy
in this time of uncertainty and distress.
Sustain and support the anxious and fearful,
and lift up all who are brought low;
that we may rejoice in your comfort
knowing that nothing can separate us from your love
in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Amen.

Planning notice
We have applied for a Faculty (church planning permission) to carry out the following work:

Mount a wooden War Memorial board, formerly belonging to the (now demolished) Church of the Good Shepherd, Leamington Priors, and latterly in the North Porch of All Saints to which there was no public access, onto the South wall of the All Souls Chapel close to the screen and at high level.

See the photos below.
​
NB The names on the board are all on the stone memorial in the Memorial Chapel nearby, but there is no appropriate wall space available there.

Any objections should be emailed to the Diocesan Registrar by Tuesday 30 June 2020:
