St James C Of E Church

This is a pretty little church serving the Mere Green flock.
I was here recently for a memorial service and was taken aback by the serenity and beauty of the interior. With the lights dimmed, and memorial candles ablaze, the church has a truly magical quality. No matter the time of year, it always makes me think of childhood Christmases.
The vicar — Bill Moore — is a considered orator and his words are both moving and thought-​provoking. What’s more, he is entertaining too and takes time to greet each member of the congregation personally! The church has great links with the local community and is especially close to the local primary schools in the area. The church hall is just a few yards away and is used for a variety of community based activities from jumble sales to Zumba!
