The Benefice of Capel St Mary with Little Wenham and Great Wenham

St. Mary, Virgin and Mother is a combined parish with Little Wenham, a redundant church now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.

This parish is joined in a Benefice with St John’s, Great Wenham. You would be most welcome to download a profile of the Benefice here (pdf).

St Mary's Regular Services

At St. Mary's we normally have services at 10.45am each Sunday and a midweek Benefice service at 10.00am on Wednesdays.

Whether you are visitors to the area or local, we are always happy to welcome new friends. This includes families and children too. Come along to one of our Sunday services and we’ll help you find a seat, introduce you to others, and make sure you enjoy a cup of tea or coffee afterwards.
