Part of leam valley churches
We are the Church of St Mark in Flecknoe, Warwickshire. Situated in the beautiful Leam Valley, Flecknoe lies in a lovely rural location to the south of Rugby. With St Peter's Church in Grandborough, All Saints Church Leamington Hastings and St Nicholas Church in Willoughby, together we make up the Leam Valley Churches.
We are a small but friendly congregation so please come and join us - you will get a warm welcome!

ceiling fundraising update
Thanks to your amazing generosity, we have raised £5,415!
The last 18 months have been very difficult for our small church. Covid-19 forced the cancellation of all our annual fundraising events which keep us on a firm financial footing. During 2019 we had undertaken urgent repairs to the roof with the intention to then repair and redecorate the interior ceiling. When the decorators got the scaffolding up and were able to have a close look at the ceiling, it was clear it was a much bigger and more expensive job than any of us had realised. In some parts of the church, large patches of plaster were hanging on by a thread! To make the ceiling safe, we had to replaster over 60% of the ceiling before redecorating it.
Your donations have enabled us to keep this lovely building open for use by anyone in our local community. Whether you attend services regularly, come for special occasions or perhaps have enjoyed our online services, thank you for your generosity! We couldn't have done it without you.
The new ceiling does look splendid - please do pop your head in and have a look.
