St Andrew's, Bolam
A Missional Community celebrating its Ancient Roots
Bolam Church offers you a warm welcome! We are a Rural church with strong links to the wider community and local schools.
Our Story
At Bolam you will always receive a wonderful warm welcome! We are traditionally a 'Middle of the Road' Parish and value our community from the Youngest to the Oldest. We host a monthly Family Service which is suitable for all ages and led by our Lay Minister and a Monthly Holy Communion as well as celebrations of special events throughout the year. Our Spring and Autumn Bonfire and Food events are always well received! We are a popular venue for weddings and it is always our delight to help celebrate significant life events.
Mission and Outreach
Each year we host a family social and churchyard bonfire which are always great fun! Our last one was in October and was a huge success. See some photos here!
Supporting the Mission of Bolam Church
Our church thrives thanks to the generous support of our amazing members and friends! Maintaining our stunning historic building requires a significant investment, and we are dedicated to preserving it for generations of worshippers.
