All Saints' church is not just a building. It is a community which offers support and friendship to all who are in the parish of Stone and Woodford. We are part of the Berkeley Benefice, within the Diocese of Gloucester.
The church has been at the heart of the community for over eight hundred years. While village life and landscape have changed much over that time, the church remains home to a friendly and welcoming congregation who do their best to keep it going for future generations.
All Saints' is a place for prayer, reflection and worship, where you will find a warm and peaceful welcome.
You are very welcome at any of our services, but before coming along have a look at the calendar. On a 5th Sunday we share a 'Benefice' service with our partner churches in Berkeley and Hill, and these services are not always in All Saints'.
