The Parish Church of Hampton-in-Arden is a beautiful, ancient Grade 1 listed building, with memorials to the Peel family who worshipped here.  It is set in a beautiful  churchyard in the Conservation area of the village.

We hope that you will find us a friendly and loving church family and we would love you to visit and perhaps you may wish to join us.

We encourage all ages with services to suit all, offering both traditional and modern styles of worship.    Our Vicar, Revd. Stuart Dimes is warm and welcoming and has a good sense of humour.   He would love you to visit our church.    He looks after Hampton in Arden church and Bickenhill and Barston churches with the help of  our Curate, Revd. Clare Dean, Revd. Sue Restall and our Lay Reader, Mary Charlton.

We also have a regular Sunday School, known as J.A.M. (Jesus and Me) which runs alongside our 11 am services  

There are normally three services on a Sunday and one on a Thursday morning:   Please see the Services section.

On the  first Sunday in the month at 11 am we hold a family service.   This is especially aimed at families, but all are welcome.      

On Remembrance Day service  11 am service moves to 10.15 am so that we can process from the church lychgate to the War Memorial for the service

We frequently have visiting singers and orchestras who put on concerts in the church.   

We have many weddings per year at Hampton church, and many baptisms per year.

We have a Pastoral Group who visit members of the village who are poorly and send first anniversary cards to our wedding couples and baptism families.

We also have a Fund raising and Social team who arrange various events throughout the year.

If you would like to learn more about us, please visit our website at  www.hamptoninardenchurch.org.uk

Or ring our Parish Administrator on 01675 442769 or email her on [email protected].   She is usually in the church office on Tuesdays from 9 am until 3.30 pm, and Thursdays 9 am until 1pm.
