Churches in South Molton Parish

St Mary Magdalene Parish Church

North Street South Molton
http://www.mary-magdalene-church-s-molton.weebly.com/

Our beautiful historic building is open during the day for quiet, priviate prayer and to look round (and currently to sign the Book of Condolences for the Queen).

Our main Sunday service is at 11am (also broadcast on Zoom) - and everyone is welcome

The Team Rector welcomes enquiries on any matter. We are keen to serve the town and the local community. 

The valuable contribution made by St. Mary Magdalene to our community has a cost, which must be largely met by personal donations.  For the Church to survive and grow, we rely on regular donations so that we can plan confidently for the future.

Please go to our website for more information.  


N.B. The car park in North Street (opposite the Fire Station) is available on Sundays for any church vistitors.
