VESTRY HOUR

Informal Chats during Vestry Hour at All Saints' Church, Walsoken.

Vestry hour is what we call the hour on Wednesday evenings when the Rector will be available in our Church for informal discussions.  Vestry hour is between 6.30pm and 7.30pm, this allows time to deal with various enquires from parishioners.

No appointment is necessary so you can just “drop in” to Church and talk to the Rector regarding arrangements for Baptisms or Weddings. These are the main issues which are usually dealt with in Vestry Hour, you may also wish to discuss the options for Confirmation or the Blessing of a wedding or perhaps the reading of Banns.

It is the policy of All Saints not to re-marry in Church those who have been divorced, however if you wish to have a blessing after a civil marriage service, then please drop in to Vestry Hour to discuss this further. To get married at All Saints’ Church, either the bride or the groom will have to live within the area of the Parish Boundary, or have immediate family living within the parish or else have a significant connection with our Church. If you are not sure whether or not you have right  to marry in our Church, please come along to see the Rector during Vestry Hour.

When the Rector is not available, the Lay Reader or a Church Warden will be present in the Church during Vestry Hour.
