Welcome to The Tew Benefice

As Vicar of The Tew Benefice, it’s my great pleasure to welcome you as you visit our website. I hope you will get a sense of the open and friendly community at each of three our churches and join us for Sunday worship whenever you can.

These are living churches putting God at the heart of our rural communities and we welcome inquiries for baptisms, weddings, funerals and other pastoral matters. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. In addition to its services, each church has an interesting history.
