Healing Ministry
The healing ministry is an integral part of the Gospel and an important aspect of the life of St Mary's. All are welcome and of course there is no charge. Healing services are quiet and meditative and you will not be asked any intrusive questions. Please contact Fr Philip if you would like to discuss any aspect of this. 
Thank you to all who donate towards the upkeep of services and the maintenance of ministry at St Mary's church, which are much appreciated. You can now give online via 'Give a Little' - click here See the Donations page for other ways of giving, including regular giving through the Parish Giving Scheme, set up by and for the Church of England, or by Standing Order |
Exciting news ....
New discoveries about the Armoury! Launch of 2 publications....
|
Mendlesham possesses a unique 16th & 17th Century Armoury complete with original arms and armour. It also has a wealth of contemporaneous parish records. Thanks to funding by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, a group of volunteers was able painstakingly to photograph, transcribe, record and research entries from over 130 documents stored at Suffolk Archives, Ipswich, to provide more valuable insight into its history. These are the results of that research.
