Church services and activities

There are services in the church on Sunday and sometimes during the week, particularly at festival times.

Our vicar is responsible for both St James and All Saints, Kempston. We have a strong team of Lay Leaders of Worship who lead some of the All Age service on the first Sunday and the services of Morning Worship. Our times of worship are attended by people of all ages and stages in their walk of faith, or in some cases by people who are thinking about or looking for a faith.

Our worship is joyful, reflective and a time to come before God in peace. Please come and join us, we would love to get to know you.

With us, you will find the presence of our loving God.

At St James our worship revolves around the Christian Year. Its seasons and celebrations provide a rhythm for our lives as we are drawn into the mysteries of Christ’s birth, baptism, temptation, ministry, suffering, death and resurrection.
