About Us:
St Gregory’s is an Anglican Church (Church of England) serving most of the town of Sudbury, Suffolk in the United Kingdom. St Gregory’s has been in Sudbury for many centuries and continues to be a focus for the local community and is seen by many as the "Mother Church" of Sudbury. St Gregory’s aims to provide for the spiritual needs of the town and wants all who come, whether just as visitors to the building, or to join in with the worship, to feel a warm welcome.
Offering a range of Christian worship on weekdays and Sundays which is both welcoming and inclusive. St Gregory's continues to serve the local community through baptisms, weddings and funerals, and as a venue for Civic and other services, and as a church building that is open daily and provides a peaceful space for visits and for prayer and reflection.
Come and look around our beautiful and ancient building, soak up the atmosphere, and perhaps light a candle for a loved one.

The Opening of St Gregory’s Church

Writing from the Rectory
Writing from the Rectory – November 2024
Dear reader, I am excited to inform you that we have been busy developing our children’s ministry at St Gregory’s and numbers are growing. We are upgrading the facilities to be more child-friendly (we now have a little garden area and space for a creche, Toddler Church and Junior Church) and are innovating with new types of events such as the Light Party and Christmas Through the Keyhole. Additionally, we are praying for a choir leader and children’s worker (details of these positions are listed below).

Sunday Morning readings
We always have a gospel reading as the second reading; the other reading will be either Old Testament or Epistle depending on the season. We are following the Roots material for All Age worship which you will find here. The theme for the Sunday is the bold typed reading which might be the gospel but as currently is an Old Testament reading.
