Welcome to our church.

We are part of the South Manlake Group which comprises Scotton, Northorpe, Scotter and Messingham.

Our church is open everyday from about 9.00 am to 6.00 pm and you are welcome to visit and spend some quiet moments in what we think is a beautiful church.  

We celebrate Eucharist with the South Manlake Group on the first Sunday of the month, this service is held in one of three village churches on a rota basis, namely Scotter, Scotton and Messingham. The service commences at 10.00 am.

Our regular village service time is 10.00 am every other Sunday of the month. Our second week service is usually a communion service based upon Common Worship. On the fourth Sunday of every month we have a Morning Service of Worship led by our team of lay ministers. We have a corner for children - books, tables and toys - to help keep children occupied if you would like to bring them with you to a service. Details of our services and those of other churches within the Group are in the Events and Calendar section.  

The South Manlake group of churches has a part time administrator, Lynne Wetherall who can be contacted between 9.00 and 10.00 am on 07775803379 or [email protected] (or leave a message anytime for a later response).
