Welcome to the Avon Valley Churches. We are a group of local people of all ages and a variety of backgrounds who are united in our love for Jesus and our desire to serve others.
We have seven churches that lie on the Western edge of the New Forest, UK, in the Diocese of Winchester. The benefice is large and diverse.
During this COVID-19 Period, the Churches here are continuing in Worship, Service and Pastoral Care. For more details, see 'The Rector's Pastoral Letter' under News, and the Weekly Newsletter, called 'Partners'.
Also, there are Daily Services on our Facebook page at 10.00a.m.
We are praying regularly for everyone who is affected in any way by this crisis.
Our Vision
To live the mission of Jesus
Our Aim
We are here to share the love of God by knowing Jesus and making him known to others.
