Welcome to Saint Andrew's Church
St Andrew's is the parish church for the beautiful village of Ombersley
We are part of a Benefice of Seven parishes with Doverdale, Hartlebury, Elmley Lovett, Elmbridge, Hampton Lovett and Rushock, which lies within the Worcester Diocese of the Church of England.
How to find us : From the south: Take the Ombersley exit from the A449 Worcester to Kidderminster road. The church is on the left just before the village roundabout (post code: WR9 0EP). From the north take the slip road and turn right under the A449, and left at the village roundabout. The spire is easily visible for miles around. Access is through the Lychgate - there is plenty parking on the gravel drive around the church.
Currently Open on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am-5pm

‘Love your Burial Ground’ week from June 5th to June 13th.
This is a springboard to start recording the wildlife in our church yards, and perhaps to plan to increase the diversity of plants and animals. Various classes from Ombersley school are going to use this opportunity to explore and record what they can find, Will you join in?
On Saturday June 12th 2-4pm we will have a Tea and Cakes and a Book stall so you can have refreshment, before or after exploring our churchyard.
