Welcome to our family
St Mary's Church, Goldington is found at the centre of our community where all find a welcome - young or old, those of faith and those of none.
Come and join in the daily and weekly worship, and the activities we host.
Our vision is to grow together as a worshipping church family, to know Jesus better and to find new ways to express our faith within our local community, and to be a safe place of joy and peace for the whole community.
