The vicar, Rev. David Smith, who looks after St. Mary’s and 13 other churches, chairs our meetings. The PCC is a charitable organisation responsible for the upkeep of the 1,100-year-old church – this is done entirely through donations and fundraising. It also contributes to the Parish Share which helps towards the vicar, mission and ministry (our share this year for St. Mary’s was \u00a32,800). Upkeep (utilities, insurance, etc), equates to around \u00a3150 per week. The PCC are not all regular churchgoers but have a shared interest in keeping the church open for the wider community, as a place of faith and as a place of contemplation. We currently have one Holy Communion service each month (first Sunday 9:30am) and an alternating Evening Prayer service (second Sunday 4pm which we share with St. Matthias, Thorpe). The church is open daily for visitors and private prayer. The PCC is always happy for new members and for volunteers to help with grass cutting, tidying, flower arranging, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Thorpe-next-Haddiscoe is the Church of England parish church of St Matthias.
