The churches of St Mary's Parish Church, Hardwick and Weedon Methodist Church work in a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP), built on many years of good relationships between the congregations.
All the services taking place within the LEP are listed below. You will be made very welcome at any of these services.

Children are most welcome to all services, but the best suited for families is the Weedon Chapel service on the second Sunday of the month where youngsters can join in. ARK Club ("Sunday School") is usually on the first Sunday of the month in Hardwick, at the same time as the main service but is not currently running until further notice.
If you need any form of support at all, please let one of the ministers know or contact Sarah (07545 350035) or Martin (01296 641071) in confidence.
Weedon Methodist Chapel
The Victorian chapel with its oak pews, panelled communion area and two beautiful stained glass windows (one showing The Last Supper) is often described as a 'haven of peace'.
It is a very popular venue for weddings, and when fully opened up can hold up to 150 people. Its lawns surrounded by trees and shurbs make an ideal setting for photo calls. There is adequate parking on the road in front of the chapel, plus full disabled access and disabled toilet.
Funeral and memorial services can also be held in the chapel.
Chapel History
Local resident Ralph Followell has written a history of the Chapel and its stained glass window.
