Welcome to St Mary's Church Almondsbury, a Church of England Parish Church in the Diocese of Bristol. There has been a Christian place of worship on this site for at least eight centuries, and parts of the present church date back to the late Norman period, notably the fine entrance porch, with the priest's chamber above. The choir, chancel tower and unusual spire (of a pattern found in only two other English churches) are certainly several hundred years old.  The church today is lively and active and remains a focus of our community life. It draws its congregation both from the parish and more widely. While perhaps between 80 and 100 people gather in St Mary's on an average Sunday, at major festivals and on other special occasions 300 people or more may be present. We promise... ...a genuine but non-pressurising welcome; ...to accept you as you are: belief, unbelief, doubts and all; ...to encourage you in your faith journey; ...if you wish, a confidential listening ear.
