At St Wilfrid’s, Brayton, you will find a community of Christians committed to sharing the love of God in Jesus with all those around us. We try to do this by offering a wide variety of services to suit different tastes, by offering a range of events and activities for all ages, and through Christian service, care for others and sharing Christ’s message. We endeavour to make our church community a safe place of welcome and belonging for all.
We are an inclusive church, forging community and proclaiming God’s love. We welcome everyone as fellow travellers in life, wherever you may be on your spiritual journey. The Christian community is lively and the churches are busy with many activities as well as our regular worship. We have excellent relations with all other denominations in the area. St Francis is our sister church in the neighbouring village of Thorpe Willoughby. For more on St Francis, follow this link.
The parish magazine, Connected, is produced each month. This incorporates news from both churches as well as news from Brayton Parish Council. It is available online or in printed form. Contact the editor: js_clarke@btinternet.com
