The Church at Milton Combe was built in 1878, and
is an extension of Christian ministry from the parent church at Buckland
Monachorum. It is designated the Church of the Holy Spirit. It has a simple
design, and through the care of regular worshippers is well-maintained, and
has a warm and welcoming appearance.
Milton Combe is a small hamlet, located at the
bottom of a valley which cuts down to the left a short distance beyond
Buckland Abbey. Passing through the valley takes you down to the beautiful
area of Maristow and Lopwell, tucked in by the River Tavy. Around 120
adults and 30 children live here.
There is a weekly service at Milton Combe.
The ministry is based on the Bible, but is set in a more traditional context.
Hymns are sung from the Ancient and Modern hymn book, and from the more
contemporary Mission Praise.
The pattern of services is as follows:
1st Sunday: 10.00am. Matins from
the Book of Common Prayer.
2nd Sunday: 9.15am.
Holy Communion.
3rd Sunday: 9.15am. Holy
Communion from the Book of Common Prayer.
4th Sunday: 9.15am. Holy
Communion.
5th Sunday: 9.15am. Holy
Communion.
Milton Combe provides a friendly and homely
environment for worship
