As spoken of elsewhere on this website, in our services and on the benefice Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/matvchurch) we have been without a rector since Mark finished in May. We are currently going through the process of consulting our congregations (we had a "vision day" in July) and our PCCs (parochial church councils, one for each parish) are drawing up the information they would like to go in a combined benefice profile. The benefice ministry team has been drawing up a description of the benefice as a whole.

The ministry team is aiming to meet up with all the churchwardens later this month and have the benefice profile agreed by all the PCCs by about 9th October in consultation with our Archdeacon, Catherine, and Bishop Jane. The next step will then be to make the benefice profile available to those who may be interested in joining us. We are appreciative of Catherine's proactive role in helping us, including the posting of Mattishall and Tudd Valley as looking for a new rector even before we here in the benefice got started. Please see our benefice highlighted at Vacancies - Diocese of Norwich. This was put in place back in June.

For more information about the process, please ask any of the ministry team (Rev. Sally Thurgill, Alan Cossey (LLM), Jackie Crisp (LLM) and Mel Stevenson (LLM)).

How To Find Us

Coming into Mattishall from the Norwich end, All Saints's church will be clearly on your left. Turn left just before it and after about 100 metres on your right is a car park at the entrance to the churchyard and opposite Victoria stores. This location has a post code of NR20 3QF and is best used if coming by car. More parking can be found just off the main road (Dereham Road) on Old School Green (NR20 3FG) or along the main road itself There is also an hourly bus service which stops opposite the church (route 4 from KonectBus) which comes from Norwich and Dereham.
If coming to the church from the western end of the village, continue to the far end of the village. All Saints' church will be very clearly on your right. Turn right immediately past it to come to the car park mentioned above.
