St Mary's
Overton

bringing more of God
to more of our lives

Welcome

We are a lively Anglican church for the whole village of Overton.
The church is made up of people at all stages on the faith journey and all ages and backgrounds.

There are good facilities for children and young people to enjoy their own activities. We make good use of our modern Church Rooms with midweek groups running for children and the local community.

Our main Sunday service is at 10:30 am. Weekly home groups are the backbone of the church where people meet to encourage and support each other and grow in our faith in Jesus Christ.

Revd James Russell

Thank you to everyone who prayed for and contributed to the recent interviews for a new Rector/Priest in Charge. We are pleased to be able to tell you that Revd James Russell, currently Rector at Mundham North with Hunston and Merston and Rural Dean of Chichester, has been offered and has accepted the post in our parishes.

The Collation Service for James will be held on Monday July 1st at 7:30pm at St Mary’s Church, Overton.

Evening Praise - Are You Hungry?

Evening Praise is now simply called ‘HUNGRY’. It’s for those who are hungry for more of God in our lives, more of God in our worship. And it’s for those who are hungry to know more of God through teaching. The aim is informal but uplifting worship, teaching, prayer and praise.
