About Us

Bordered by the rivers Bure and Yare, our benefice of 7 parishes is set within the inspiring landscape of the Norfolk Broads. Our church buildings have stood for centuries as signs of God’s presence, lifting countless hearts and minds in worship. Covering 11 villages, our church people seek to promote the love of God within our local communities, not least by praying for them; and to witness to the fullness of life lived with God through Jesus Christ.
