The Benefice
Our United Benefice covers the three churches of St Margaret's (Wrenbury), St Michael's (Baddiley) and St Mary & St Michael's (Burleydam).
We share a Vicar, a Curate and a ministry team.
Every Sunday a service is held in at least one of our Churches (please check all the calendars for details) and on one Sunday in the month we all worship together, taking it in turns to host a United Benefice service of Holy Communion.
<span style="font-size: 1rem;">You are most welcome to attend any of the services which range from traditional Book of Common Prayer to Family Service - we hope that during each month we have something for everyone.</span>
