Message from the Vicar

St Peter Mancroft Church has stood in the heart of Norwich for almost 600 years, a place of prayer and sanctuary.

Everyone is welcome to come and enjoy the stillness of this place and maybe light a candle. We see ourselves as a safe space - a place of sanctuary which welcomes people of diverse ages, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexualities and disabilities. All are welcome, as reflected in our response to the ‘Honest Church’ campaign.

Our church is open Mondays to Saturdays for visitors and private prayer between 10.30am and 3.30pm. Entrance is through the doors at the West end of the building on Millennium Plain and Hay Hill. Level access can be found at the south porch (opposite Next).

On Sundays we have services at 8.00am, 10.00am and 5.00pm, and the 10.00am Sung Eucharist is also livestreamed every week on our YouTube channel.

For more details about our worship and the many other things happening at Mancroft, please see our weekly newsletter. Please use the link below to see this week's edition.

I look forward to welcoming you at the church soon,

The Revd Canon Edward Carter
Vicar of St Peter Mancroft
