All Saints is a family church which draws on a variety of traditions in its worship. At All Saints we recognise that we are all on a journey together, seeking to be in a closer relationship with Jesus Christ in all that we do.
Why not join us on that journey, and discover the amazing love that God has for each one of us.
We look forward to welcoming you to All Saints.

Special Appeal
Update – £836 received to date including gift aid. Any further donations by Sunday 8 February will be very welcome!
Collections at Christingle celebrations are one of the main sources of income for The Children’s Society. Caroline spoke about their work at our service on 1 February and asked for your financial support with a “red bucket” collection.
Where possible, donations should be made through online banking into the All Saints’ CAF Bank account: sort code 40-52-40, account number 00021409, account name “All Saints Church Berkhamsted”. Please quote Christingle and your surname as your reference.
For those without online banking, a cheque made payable to “All Saints Church Berkhamsted” (with a note saying Christingle) can be given or sent to the Church Treasurer,
Whichever way you donate, we will add 25% to your donation by claiming Gift Aid on it where we already hold a declaration from you.
Further information about the work they do can be seen here: The Children’s Society
Please give generously!
fortnightly on a Thursday – on Zoom only, not in church
The ancient office of Compline derives its name from a Latin word meaning ‘completion’ (completorium). It is above all a service of quietness and reflection before rest at the end of the day.
Please log in soon after 8.40pm. We are not able to let you in after the service has begun. Remember to mute yourself before we begin the service.
At the end we leave in silence.
All are very welcome to join us.
This service is normally held at 9.30am every Tuesday, in the apse, lasting 30 minutes, and usually led by Revd Stuart Owen.
Morning Prayer is normally held at 9.00am every Tuesday, lasting about 15 minutes.
Evening Prayer is normally held at 4.00pm every Friday.
Our Messy Church meets once a month on a Sunday afternoon, in most months of the year.

All Saints’ relies on donations to support its work. On average, our annual expenditure is about £100,000 (nearly £2,000 per week).
You can donate to us in several ways. Please see our Support Us page for more information.
