The Book of Common Prayer (BCP) Holy Communion service is a traditional Anglican service of worship centred on scripture, prayer, and the sharing of bread and wine. Using the timeless words of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, the service follows a structured and reflective pattern that includes readings from the Bible, congregational prayers, a short sermon, and Holy Communion.

This service is known for its reverent atmosphere and beautiful language, the service offers a peaceful and prayerful way to worship rooted in centuries of Christian tradition.

Please note that the entrance to the St Mary’s church for this service is through the small North door (roughly in line with the blue arrow in the pictures) rather than the main door on the south side (Handsworth Park side) of the church.
