Marshfield Benefice

Partners

We work with a number of different partners here in the local community and across the world.

Partnerships provide a vital link to those in our own community and around the world.

Through our partners we are able to encourage others in their journeys of faith, and serve communities and individuals in the name of Jesus.

Marshfield Chapel

Marshfield Chapel, situated in the High Street, is a non-denominational, non-conformist, independent Chapel.

We work closely with St Mary’s, and have joint services once a month. We see ourselves as a partner church, offering a different type of worship, but sharing the same faith. 

The Chapel is used as a venue for the Alpha course.

We would love to welcome you to some of our services.

CMS

The Church Mission Society is a community of people in mission who want the world to know Jesus.

Our church, with others in Bristol Diocese, support CMS partner Katia Rocks in Brazil. Katia writes:

“I am called to share the good news of Jesus and his kingdom, to make committed followers of Jesus and plant new churches that will impact the local community positively. I feel called to this with words, through demonstrations of the Holy Spirit’s power and serving the local community. I am sharing Jesus with others, church planting and helping others to do the same.”

Marshfield School

We are very fortunate to have Marshfield CE Primary School, a wonderful church primary school in our benefice.

Clergy take assemblies in the school most weeks and we welcome all the children into church in Marshfield for special services during the course of the year.  

We also pray regularly for the life of the school and for staff and children.

Sisters of the Church

We have a longstanding link with the Sisters of the Church community based in St Paul’s Bristol.

We regularly support them at important points in the year, such as Harvest, Christmas and Easter.

Ripple Effect

Ripple Effect work alongside families in rural Africa, so they can grow more food, earn a living, and break the cycle of poverty – for good.

The work of Ripple Effect encompasses sustainable agriculture, gender and social inclusion, and enterprise development.

Their work not only improves nutrition and incomes, but also keeps kids in school, improves water and sanitation and helps communities adapt to the devastating impacts of climate change.
