St David’s Church Ashprington

St David’s Blessing
Be joyful, keep your faith and your creed, and do the little things you have seen and heard me do.

The church is open between 10.00am and 4.00pm each day for private prayer and reflection. Our churchyard is also a peaceful place for meditation and contemplation.  There is a path through the graveyard and benches available.

St David’s Coffee Morning

Coffee mornings are held in the village hall every Thursday from 10.30 – 12.00 am.  It is a pleasant time to meet friends and other villagers over coffee and cake. All are very welcome. A small library of fiction and DVDs for villagers to borrow and return is being created upstairs in the committee room. It’s available at the coffee morning so you can grab a book, a coffee and Claire’s delicious cake all at the same time!
