All Saints’ Cossington
We are a growing, friendly congregation committed to sharing God’s love, grace and faithfulness with all people. Rooted in our identity as children of Christ, we seek to grow together as a church family, nurturing and supporting each other as we explore God’s call on each of our lives and our life together as the family of God. All are invited to join us and are guaranteed a warm welcome.
We meet on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of each month at 9.30am in the school hall of Cossington Primary School (follow the path through the playground or access via Homestead Close and you will find the school hall adjacent to the school field).
Our Family Worship on the 2nd Sunday includes children’s groups for those between the ages of 3 and 10 and 10+.
On the fourth Sunday we meet together for our all-age service, when we remain together as a church family.
For further information on Children’s activities please phone Helen McCague 01509 812271.
All our children’s workers are DBS checked and appropriate safeguarding procedures are in place.
Both these services are led by our locally authorised Minister Andrew Marshall.
On the 3th Sunday we meet in the church at 9.30am for a service of Morning Worship or Holy Communion.
After all morning services tea / coffee and biscuits are served and we would invite you to stay and join us to chat and get to know each other better.
There is no service on the 1st Sunday of each month.
The church is not easily visible from the road. Car parking is accessed from beside the war memorial (by the marker for Magpie Cottage). Access by foot is also available along the drive about opposite Homestead Close and Hall Close. (Currently the Google map does not show the church but it is at the end of the above drive)
Cossington Parish Church is a Grade II* listed building. Only 4% of listed buildings in England are of this status and are classified as particularly important buildings of more than special interest. Cossington Church has its own Friends organisation which is very active and supportive in raising funds to assist with maintenance and the enhancement of facilities. A description of the church along with a number of pictures are available on the“Leicestershire and Rutland Churches” website. There is currently a project to improve the fabric and facilities of the church, in order to better serve the community and church family, with considerable information available on the “Our Cossington” website.
Architectural details are also provided by Pevsner and may be accessed on the “Charnwood Listed Buildings” website. This site also includes an aerial view of the locality.
