Describing smaller churches

At the recent Cathedral service celebrating smaller churches, all those present were asked to bring one word that described their church. These words were written on tags and hung on a prayer tree during the service.

All of the tags were then collected and the words have been turned into a word cloud which describes our smaller churches.

How would you describe your church – is there anything missing here?

Diocesan Small Churches Choir

11th November 2025

At the celebration service for small churches service held in the Cathedral last May, a number of singers expressed a wish to be able to sing together more often. Mark and Linda Blackwell from Fladbury (Nr Evesham) felt called to use their experience to try to set up a choir made up from singers from the small churches across the Diocese to sing at occasional services at Worcester and other cathedrals.
