Annual Parochial Church Meetings - 2025

In each parish the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) is the main business meeting of the year where members of the congregation meet to receive reports on church activities and to elect members of the Parochial Church Council and Deanery Synod. It is, traditionally, preceded by an annual Meeting of Parishioners (or Vestry Meeting) where churchwardens are elected by the community.

This year's meetings will be held as follows:

  • St Michael's, Teignmouth - Sunday 16 March 2025 in St Michael's church (after 9.30am service).
  • St James', Teignmouth - Sunday 6 April 2025 (after 11.00am service).
  • Shaldon Parish - Saturday 12 April 2025 in St Peter's Church at 11.45am
  • St John's, Bishopsteignton - Sunday 27th April 2025 after service
  • St Nectan's, Ashcombe- Tuesday 13th May 2025 at 10.00am in St Nectan's

Keswick in Devon

Over Forty Years of Ministry

Since 1981 visitors have visited the East Devon seaside town of Sidmouth to join local Christians for five days of stimulating and challenging Bible teaching and ministry from some of the most gifted preachers ministering today. Two meetings a day enjoy an audience of 250 – 300 participants from far and wide across the UK. The most recent Keswick in Devon was held on 3-7 March 2025.

Open the Bible

For various reasons, from August, the Open the Book Team will no longer be affiliated to Open the Book organised by The  Bible Society, and will therefore now be known as Open the Bible. We will continue to go into schools to take assemblies but being independent of Open The Book will allow us to be more creative with our assembly format.

Pray for Ukraine
6 May 25: After recent events in Teignmouth we asked the awesome young people at the Popup cafe today @StJamesChurch where they felt safe. So good to see some write ‘church’. We are trying to make a small difference in what can be a really tough time of life for our young people.
Pray for the Holy Land
