COVID-19 UPDATE
Updated: 6 August 2020, 17:30
We have begun work to tidy and clean and put into place the necessary COVID Secure measures, meaning that we aim to re-open the building for a service 'in person' this Sunday 9 August, all being well! These services will be different from what we used to do, the guidance and law in place require it. You can see more details and are able to reserve your place on our Services page.
However, we've never stopped being the church just because our building is closed. We are streaming daily prayer and Sunday services on Facebook:
Daily prayer at our sister church's page:

Sunday worship on our own page:

You can also see recent services below.
If you're here because you've seen some of our streamed services and want to know more, welcome! If there is anything we can do to help, maybe there are questions this site doesn't answer, please do contact the Rector: richard@allsaintsnewtownlinford.org.uk

Eco Church
Despite the current closure of the church building, we are delighted to announce that we have been presented with the Eco Church Bronze award by A Rocha. This is testament to the hard work put in primarily by Jane Woolmer and reflects initiatives in both practical and spiritual aspects of church life.
Church renovation
20 June 2020: Work continues, a major milestone reached this past week as the scaffolding came down. Until completion - now expected at the beginning of July - no-one other than the contractors is allowed to access the building.
23 May 2020: Good news, as the government and Church of England have both updated their advice about construction work, the renovation is about to resume. The building remains closed to all other use, in some ways even more firmly closed, due to the health and safety precautions in place to mitigate infection risk.
30 March 2020: unfortunately the works in the church building have had to be paused - while they are important to us, they do not count as 'essential' in this time of national emergency. We look forward to them resuming when possible, and for re-worked plans for a great celebratory re-opening and resumption of worship.
