St George's Church, Colegate, Norwich

St George's Church, Colegate, Norwich Our worship is straightforward Anglican, accessible and undemonstrative. For contact details click the About Section and go to Description

Holy Communion every Sunday at 9.30 a.m. is a relaxed service with good music and a challenging sermon. Coffee is served afterwards. We are a committed and growing congregation all playing our part in helping St George's Colegate meet its role as the parish church of Norwich Over-the-Water. In late 2010 we carried out a long-overdue project to update a 1960s kitchen and toilet to provide an access

ible meeting room, thus helping to unlock the potential of the building for the next part of its history. In 2011 we managed to complete necessary repairs to external stonework and guttering. The new parish room is now well used, for example for a lunchtime or evening course during Lent, holding our 'Dirty Shirt Club' meetings, and offering a place of retreat for parents and children during the Sunday service (which can be followed on a small TV screen).

Just a reminder that we will be gathering for our monthly Sung Compline this evening at 9:00 pm at St George Tombland Church. A beautiful church. Sublime chant. Scriptural poignancy. Wonderful people. Prosecco and nibbles. I, personally, cannot think of a better way to spend a Friday evening! Hope to see you there!
