St. Mary the Virgin is a typical parish church; ancient, recorded in the Domesday book, set in the oldest part of the village of Haddenham and made all the more appealing by its picturesque location next to duck pond and village green. St. Mary's is much more than an attractive 13th century building however - it is home to a vibrant 21st century Christian community that is intimately involved with the wider community in Haddenham in many different ways.

Welcome !

... to St Mary's! We are the Church of England (Anglican) parish church in the village of Haddenham in Buckinghamshire. St. Mary's, Haddenham is the largest parish in the benefice of Haddenham with Cuddington, Kingsey and Aston Sandford and is part of the Diocese of Oxford. We are also responsible for the ground-breaking Cafeplus+ initiative which meets monthly in the village.

Our church services offer a variety of worship styles and activities to suit everyone. Children are very welcome. There is a crèche room for the very young in church, and also Children's Church during the Sunday mid-morning services. There is a loop system in church for those with hearing difficulties.

Our magnificently situated church building has been home for many years to a thriving Christian community. We hope that, if you are able to visit or join us, you will find space to discover more about God and the Christian faith, time for prayer and reflection, and also the opportunity to make new friends. Our aim is to be outward looking, open to all, and to share the love of God in Jesus Christ with those around us.
