About

Who We Are

We are a friendly, prayerful, and generous community of Christians trying to live out our faith by loving God and loving our neighbour, as Jesus taught us.

St. Mary's Parish has been worshipping on this hill in Bagillt since 1839. St. Peter's Church, in the Boot End, began as a mission church of St. Mary's in 1883 and was known as the "Welsh Church." In 2012 St. Peter's Church closed, and the congregation was combined with St. Mary's to become the Church of St. Mary and St. Peter.

What we believe

St. Mary's & St. Peter's is an Anglican church, part of the Church in Wales, which is a province of the Anglican Communion.

We confess our faith using the words of the ancient creeds of the Catholic Church. The Apostles' Creed is our Baptismal symbol and the Nicene Creed is our statement of faith.

We believe that the Holy Scriptures (the Old and New Testaments of the Bible) contain all things necessary for our salvation.

The mission of the Church is "to be the instrument of God in restoring all people to unity with God and each other in Christ."

The ministry of all members is "to represent Christ and his Church; to bear witness to him wherever they may be; according to the gifts given to them, to carry on Christ's work of reconciliation in the world and to play their part in the worship and life of the Church."
