Welcome to St Nicholas Church
We are one of 7 churches in the West Purbeck Benefice, whose Rector is
Revd Canon Richard Bartlett, the Vicar of Wool. Following the recent retirement of Revd David Chillman from the Lulworths, the clergy team comprises Revd Jenny Alidina and our Curate Revd Lydia Reese. The Benefice Office can provide details of services and how to get in touch with the clergy about pastoral care, baptisms, marriages and funerals. E-mail Eve Baker westpurbeckoffice@gmail.com or phone 07729 484866 (leave a message as the office is not always manned). During the early part of 2025, we will be advertising for a second full-time priest to share the work with Canon Bartlett. We hope that the post will be filled by August.
A service of Holy Communion will be held in St Nicholas church at 9am on the second Sunday of each month. For full details of the regular services within the Lulworths Parish and the wider West Purbeck Benefice, please visit our web site and click on the Link www.westpurbeck.org.uk
St Nicholas church is opened every day for private prayer and for visitors.
