Setting > Ecumenism

For some years the different churches in Audlem have worked closely together. Representatives meet for planning and discussion, each church contributes to the Parish News magazine, united services are held during the year, lunches and a study group are shared during Lent, and the three churches combine each summer to provide a free barbecue at the end of the village Fun-ky youth weekend.

At the beginning of each year, the village churches share in a pulpit swap to mark the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. This year (2010), the Methodist minister presided at communion in St James, the Anglican Priest-in-Charge took the morning service at the Baptist Church, and a Baptist preacher led worship at AMC.
