About Us

St Peter’s church is set in the village of Church Langton, in south Leicestershire, near to the town of Market Harborough. Worship is Anglican (Church of England). We use the ‘Common Worship’ red book for our services. St Peter’s is part of the Launde Minster Community in the Diocese of Leicester.The church serves three villages in its parish, East Langton, West Langton and Church Langton village itself. Our regular worship pattern is Holy Communion on the second and fourth Sunday of the month, dovetailing with our fellow churches, St Leonard’s, Thorpe Langton (first Sunday of the month, evening) and St Andrew’s Tur Langton, third Sunday.

St Peter’s is also part of the wider Launde Deanery Minster Community. Our weekly services and worship pattern are published here, along with a newsletter every week. Full details and links below.

The building is managed day-to-day by its PCC – or Parochial Church Council. This a small team of volunteers who are usually lead by a Priest-in-Charge. At this time, our Benefice does not have a parish priest (a time called ‘Interregnum’) but we have the support of local retired clergy who help the PCC with services and pastoral care for its parishioners and wider church family. We are a friendly and welcoming team who enjoy meeting visitors.

Eco Church – St Peter’s has recently joined the Eco Church project, with the aim to improve the building and reduce its carbon footprint and to develop processes that better serve the wider environment.

Upcoming Events

St Peter’s not only offers regular worship and support to its community, but also regular events to support the inevitable fundraising needs to keep the building running. The building as we know it now, has stood for over 800 years; and we are doing our very best, with your help, to keep it in good health to welcome people for another 800 years!

Our regular programme of events include, ‘Cinema in the Langtons’ film nights, music and more.
