St Mary's holds an annual confirmation service, usually involving people from its own congregation and several college chapels. The 2013 confirmation service will take place on Sunday 5th May at 10.30am.

If you would like to be confirmed or would like to discuss baptism for either yourself or a child, please contact Canon Brian Mountford.

Weddings also are held by arrangement, but there are certain legal requirements that must be fulfilled. If you would like to be married at St Mary's, please contact the Vicar
