Welcome to the fellowship of St. Barnabas.

We are one of the three Anglican churches that make up the Melksham Team Ministry and we are located in the village of Beanacre, which straddles the A350 to the North of Melksham.

We are a small fellowship made up of people who both live in the village and travel from further afield. We come together to worship God and encourage one another in our faith in Jesus Christ. We welcome people of all ages and backgrounds to join with us on our journey of faith. At St. Barnabas we seek to build community, to deepen our relationship with God and to engage in serving our local community and the wider world.

For more information see our Parish website at melksham.church

We look forward to meeting you!
