Life Events

It is a great privilege to be involved in many of people's significant life events, 

including baptisms (also called christenings), weddings and funerals.

​

For enquiries about any of these services, please contact the Church Office on stmsherwood@gmail.com or revsue.stmsherwood@gmail.com

Baptisms

Baptism (Christening) marks the beginning of the journey of faith in Jesus Christ. We welcome people of all ages for baptism, which occurs during the main Sunday morning service.

 

Anyone living in the parish of St Martin's or with a connection to the church, is welcome to enquire about being baptised here

Weddings

We love weddings at St Martin's! It is a privilege and a joy to be able to celebrate your special day with you and we will be pleased to meet you both, to talk through the meaning of marriage as understood by the Christian Church, and to help you plan your wedding. Please contact stmsherwood@gmail.com to enquire. 

 

The Church of England's weddings website has answers to lots of questions and some ideas for readings and music.
