We look forward to seeing you at St Mary's, Rickmansworth this Christmas

Advent Sunday

This is the beginning of the Christian Year and marks the beginning of the journey of Mary and Joseph. The St Mary's Travelling Crib will start its journey after the 10.00am service, travelling from house to house around our church community.

There is a special Carol Service at 6.00pm.

During Advent, there will be a series of evenings of prayer and reflection [more....].

Christmas Postbox starts

Boxes will be at the back of church for you to post your cards to other members of the congregation. There is a charge of 10p per card which will be donated to the Children's Society and Action For Children.

Cards not collected by Epiphany (6th January) will be recycled so don't forget to pick up your cards!!!

There is also a board at the back of church if you prefer to put up a card to everyone in the parish, making a donation to the charities above.

If you'd like your greeting to appear on this website, please email the webmaster with your greeting (and a photograph of your family if you wish) and make a donation to the charities.
