Welcome
to our two churches, St John's, Markyate and St Leonard's, Flamstead.
We work together to share God's love with our communities.
We are inclusive churches:
we are all God's children, everyone is welcome here.

The Holy Spirit is coming! Join us in St Leonard's for a Churches Together Pentecost celebration on Sunday 19th May. This is the birthday of the church, so we celebrate with Markyate Baptist Church and both churches in our benefice all together in St Leonard's at 10.30am.
(Our friends the Flamstead Methodists have their own individual birthday that day, so can't be with us, but will be in our prayers).
Safeguarding
We take our responsibility for safeguarding very seriously.
Our parishes of St Leonard's, Flamstead and St John the Baptist, Markyate Street are committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of St.Albans’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSOs.
If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm in or relating to St Leonard's, please contact the PSO, Mary Jenkin on 07557 765231 or parishofficefm@gmail.com or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor, Jeremy Hirst on 01727 818107 or safeguarding@stalbans.anglican.org. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
