The Minster, Ilminster

The Minster, Ilminster It stands proud above the main street and is part of the daily lives of the people of Ilminster whether they are shopping, going to school or work.

The benefice of Ilminster and Whitelackington offers the best of town and country, comprising the iconic Minster at the centre of Ilminster and the traditional rural Church of St Mary's Whitelackington. The Minster Ilminster - “Christ in the Community”

We are very privileged in Ilminster to have the beautiful Church of St Mary situated in the heart of the town. Visitors to the Church find that it

is an oasis of calm in a very busy and noisy world. Services are held here every Sunday, when well over 100 worshippers enjoy the fellowship of other Christians and leave feeling refreshed and uplifted. During the week the Church is open as often as possible and there are daily services as well.

We marked Lammas, the first grain harvest, at our Whole Church service this morning. Our reading from the Gospel of Matthew spoke of kindness, generosity and God's amazing provision. We heard how Jesus gave thanks, blessed and shared two small fish and five loaves to feed a crowd of 5000+. We shared in the feast and had the chance to make our own loaves during the service!

Join us next month for Whole Church on Sunday 6th September at 10.30am.
