The Parish Church of All Saints' Sedgley
Church of England
All Saints’ Church was rebuilt by the Earl of Dudley between 1826 and 1829, replacing the previous medieval church. It stands in the central part of Sedgley in a prominent position, and the tower and spire are visible for miles around.
All Saints’ has three Sunday services: Said Eucharist at 8am and Sung Eucharist at 10.30am, both using Common Worship, and Evensong at 6.30pm using the Book of Common Prayer. In addition to this we have Morning Prayer once a month at 10.30am and Baptisms at 4pm on the fourth Sunday in the month. The fifth Sunday in the month is a Team Service at one of our three churches. We conduct on average 15 weddings, 30 baptisms and 15 funerals each year.
The church celebrates various festivals throughout the year with special services at Easter and Christmas, as well as the popular Christingle Service and the Remembrance Day Service, all attracting significant numbers of people. In recent years we have hosted a Civic Service for Dudley Council. Several of the local schools hold their carol services in church and we have also hosted the Service for Christian Unity. The Life Exhibition has visited Sedgley several times and this provides ecumenical outreach to over 700 school children during the week of the event. Each week the church is open for coffee - everyone is welcome at this drop-in session held at the back of church every Friday from 10.30am-12.00 noon. The Junior Church has a group of around 8 children attending, and a dedicated team of helpers. They put on various playlets/sketches on Bible themes throughout the year, culminating in the Nativity, which the congregation thoroughly enjoys.
Other organisations within the church include the Noah’s Ark Toddler Group, Mothers’ Union, Men’s Society, Ladies Society and Youth Group. Other groups which meet regularly in the church hall include the Art Club, Rainbows, Brownies, Zumba, Tai-Chi, Yoga and Gentle Exercise.
To see all of our organisations please see gornalandsedgley.org.uk We hold a number of social events throughout the year which include concerts, skittles evenings, cream tea afternoons, summer and Christmas fairs, barn dances, an annual Macmillan Coffee morning, Christmas Tree Festival, Children’s Society Fair and occasional Flower Festivals.
