Weddings, christenings and funerals

Weddings

We’re always delighted to hear from couples who’d like to get married at St Peter Mancroft. A wedding is a unique and special day for you, when you make promises to each other that will shape the rest of your lives. Getting married in church means you will be including the traditional prayers and hymns in your service, and you will know God’s blessing on you. For more information about whether you have a qualifying connection to get married at St Peter Mancroft please contact the Church Office.

Christenings (also called Baptism)

We’d be pleased to hear from you if you’d like to find out about having your child christened at St Peter Mancroft. It’s a service when they have water poured over them, and when their identity is ‘lined up’ with God. It begins a wonderful spiritual life-journey for your child and is a special day of celebration for family and friends. Adults can be baptised as well. Please contact the Church Office if you’d like to find out more.

Funerals

At St Peter Mancroft we are always here to help you through one of life’s most challenging times, when someone you love has died. One of our clergy will arrange to meet you, so we can help make sure the service is just as you’d like it to be. A Christian funeral draws upon beautiful and traditional words and music, so your loved one’s life can be celebrated, and they can be commended to God’s care and protection. For more information please contact the Church Office in the first instance.
