The Church of St Leonard at Wroxall Abbey in Warwickshire was built in the 14th Century, as an addition to the main abbey, built in 1141 AD. The original abbey is now in ruins, but the Church remains as a thriving, independent Christian church - serving the Lord for over 700 years. The church is led by Rev Canon Dave Cooper and his wife Mandy, alongside Rev Canon Pete Earle and his wife Rev Wendy
Earle - with a wider team supporting the congregation - and regular preaching by Bishop David Carr, Bishop/Abbot of Wroxall Abbey. We provide weekly services, special services, retreats, and life events with marriages, baby and child dedications, and celebrations of life. The team have combined ministry experience of over 200 years, spanning church leadership, academic education, pastoral care, international ministry, worship and chaplaincy. We are an independent Christian church, structured as a charitable incorporated organisation with a board of trustees. We are a member of the Order of St Leonard, via which we are recognised as members of Churches Together in England. Our mission is to add to the kingdom - and our website and social media pages provide information on the many ways in which we achieve this. Our services are held at 4:00pm each Sunday, followed by free refreshments at the beautiful Wroxall Abbey Hotel within their lounge and terrace, just a few steps from the church and with whom we share the site. We are the only church in England offering Christian marriages that shares its site and facilities with a hotel - and there are many unique options for weddings and life celebrations in combination with the hotel facilities - from intimate events to large scale - and over 27 acres of beautiful landscaped grounds to enjoy. We believe this is a special place; a place dedicated to the Lord for a thousand years and within which a deep sense of connection can be discerned. We would love to meet you.
