A Warm Place with Open Doors
We are a small, friendly church located in the beautiful English city of Norwich. We would love to welcome you to our weekly service at 9.30am each Sunday, when we celebrate the Eucharist, and afterwards have refreshments in the hall. The service has a mixture of music, talks, prayers and time to catch up with friends. There’s no reserved seating or formal etiquette so please do sit where you like.
We have a 30-minute daily Morning Prayer service in church at 9.00am (not usually on Tuesdays), and a Wednesday Eucharist at 10.00am.
St Mary Magdalene belongs to the Church of England Diocese of Norwich and is part of the Sprowston and North Norwich Team Ministry.
According the Norfolk Record Office, "The church of St Mary Magdalene in Silver Road was built in 1903 as a district church in the parish of St James with Pockthorpe; the separate ecclesiastical parish of St Mary Magdalene was created by Order in Council in 1909. St Mary Magdalene was a district chaplaincy of St James the Great with Pockthorpe from 1903 to 1909, when it became a separate ecclesiastical parish. In 1972 the church of St James was declared redundant and the two benefices were united."
