Welcome – it's great to see you!
The Severn Loop Parishes serve the rural communities of Albrighton with Battlefield, Bicton, Bomere Heath, Fitz, Leaton, Montford and Shrawardine and is situated to the north and west of the town of Shrewsbury in the county of Shropshire.
We are part of the Diocese of Lichfield whose mission statement was inspired by its founding saint: Come follow Christ in the footsteps of St Chad. We in the Loop have qualified this with our own strapline: Know the Story, Share the Story, Live the Story. In our life together as disciples in these beautiful rural communities, we seek to deepen our faith, share the hope we have, and bear witness to Jesus as Lord in all that we do.
Whether you would like to join with us for Sunday worship or in one of our ministries, whether you're thinking about marriage or baptism, or whether you are just browsing, we welcome you!
Our curate’s priesting: a big 'thank you' from Dave:
Thank you so much to everyone who was present at, contributed to, and was thinking and praying for me around the priesting service on 21st June. It was particularly special to be ordained as priest within the parishes I'm serving here. Thank you so much for your generosity, of heart and warmth in receiving me this past year, and especially in the gifts you gave me. It's a real privilege to see the love and kindness of God reflected within you all.
