Holy Trinity, Rolleston

Nottinghamshire

 

Rolleston Church has been here for over 1000 years and has provided a centre for celebrations at times of great joy and for comfort at times of great sorrow.

 

Everybody, of all denominations, is always welcome to come and worship at Holy Trinity. The usual times of services are listed below, and a board outside the church also shows the time of the next Sunday service.

 

Usual Service Times

 

             1st Sunday of the Month             11.00 am                All Age Worship

           2nd Sunday                                   9.00 am                Morning Service

           3rd Sunday                                 11.00 am                Joint Benefice service (in different churches)

           4th Sunday                                  11.00 am                Holy Communion

              5th |Sunday                                               11.00 am                      Joint Benefice Service in different churches)

 

This service pattern is likely to change from 2012 because of the number of churches in the two benefices for

which our Priest Claire is responsible.

 

There are other services elsewhere in the benefice at different times.

 

 

The Friends of Holy Trinity organise regular events in the village, and there is an active group of bellringers, who always welcome new members and those who would like to try bellringing, as well as visitors to their practice night on Wednesdays at 7.30pm

We keep the church locked most of the time because of its relatively isolated location. If you wish to access the church we will be happy to let you have a key. The easiest way is to contact the churchwardens or vicar by phone, who will make arrangements to meet you or leave the church unlocked.
