St Denys’ Project
St Denys’ Project
Due to the exciting project to make changes to St Denys', the church will be closed for building works from 12th November 2018. The last service will be Remembrance Sunday, 11th November at 10.55am. The works are scheduled for 12 weeks, so we hope to reopen in February/March 2019. The project includes new heating and electrics, the removal of some pews to create a more flexible space, a kitchen and opening up the west door. External toilets are also being installed, though this won’t affect access to the church.
In addition to regular Sunday services, there will not be any services over Christmas in St Denys’. St Peter’s church in Bradfield - and Tutts Clump Methodist, (the latter unfortunately is not holding a service on Christmas Day) - as well as the churches in Bucklebury, would love to give a warm welcome to the St Denys' congregation and any visitors while the church is closed.
Do keep an eye on this website for latest news and information. We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused by the temporary closure, but are very excited at how the church and wider community will benefit from this project to renew and refresh St Denys’.
