Following consultation with the churchwardens and guidance received from Her Majesty’s Government I am pleased to announce that the churches of Upton cum Chalvey will be re-opening in the coming weeks.
Communion will be given in one kind only. There will be no collection, but plates/boxes will be available to make a donation. There will be no singing, but there may be some music.
Worshippers are asked to sign into the churches, to observe the one-way system in place for each church, to observe social distancing, and to follow directions given for their own safety.
The sanitary facilities will not be open, and there will be no catering.

History of St Mary’s Church
The building stating today was designed by John Oldrid Scott; building started in 1874, and was completed in 1913 with the addition of the tower and spire.
The church houses some unique stained glass. The completely abstract west window – one of the first of its kind – was created by Alfred Wolmark in 1915.
