Welcome to ACNB church

@acnbchurch is the Church of England worshipping community in the three parishes of Ampfield, Chilworth and North Baddesley. We are here for all so that the light of God may be made visible in our local communities. We are an Inclusive Church.

Dennis Bryant has sadly had to cancel his recital at St Denys Church, Chilworth on Wednesday 13 November. Do keep an eye on our website as Dennis is keen to set a new date for 2025.

There are a couple of changes to services this week. Please note:

  • Tues 17th Sept - the service at St Mark’s will be morning prayer
  • Wed 26th June - the service at All Saints will be evening prayer
Safeguarding Sunday is on Sunday 17 November. Join our congregations at St Mark or All Saints as we hear readings, sing hymns and explore what safeguarding is.
There is no midweek Communion at All Saints on Wednesday evening and there will be Morning Prayer rather than Communion at St Mark on Tuesday morning."
An obituary notice.

We are an inclusive and welcoming group of three communities following the example of Jesus Christ. Working together locally we seek to encourage one another to live the way Jesus taught

  • To worship God together and to faithfully embody His love for all people.
  • To prayerfully encourage faith and service.
  • To seek to learn and live a new life as a disciple of Christ.

We share our faith in the local community through organising or hosting various activities. Across the villages we use and take care of four church buildings - St Mark in Ampfield, St Denys in Chilworth and All Saints and St John the Baptist, both in North Baddesley.

Ribbons and prayers for Ukraine

We continue to pray for Ukraine, and for those who are fleeing their homes in fear and terror, families separated and those who have lost loved ones. To help us pray, and to encourage our community to pray, we have set up stations outside each of our churches, please do feel free to pause for a moment and pray as you tie a blue or yellow ribbon.
