Who we are
Exminster Parish Church is at the heart of our village with a big heart to love and serve our community. We know there has been a Christian community dating back as early as the 12th century and likely much earlier and the message of God's love is still transforming lives here today.
Alongside being here for you for any weddings, christenings and funerals, you are also so welcome to join us for any of our services. On Sunday mornings at 10am we follow the lectionary for common worship services with Eucharists on the 2nd and 4th Sundays.
We also have a more informal discussion based service that meets on the 1st and 3rd Sundays, 6-7pm in the small Emmanuel chapel next to Berrybrook Motors. We are currently looking at the how our emotional health and growing in our emotional maturity can help us grow as disciples of Jesus.
