Welcome to the website of the parish of Capel and Ockley.  We are part of the Surrey Weald Team of parishes close to the south Surrey border with West Sussex. The other parishes in the team are St Peter’s, Newdigate, and St Mary Magdelene, South Holmwood. Our church offers a variety of worship, both separate and as part of the Weald Team.

We are a two small friendly village churches joined in one parish. The churches remain rural, but are located in the busy commuter belt south of London.

We serve first and foremost God, our father in heaven, but serving God also means offering help and comfort to all around us. Love your neighbour as yourself. We therefore feel we must be at the heart of our community. We extend a welcome to all in the village and those visiting, all people of faith and all who have not had faith for some time.

We are enjoying a few days near Weymouth in Dorset in our touring caravan – the weather either extremely hot or extremely cloudy and chilly – the usual British seaside holiday weather, along with the wasps, as I am constantly telling my grandchildren! We haven’t been to Dorset in a very long time and it is wonderful to revisit old haunts and new ones. Such a beautiful county and coastline. So September beckons and so does the beginning of our Autumn services and events. We are very much looking forward to another thrilling Murder Mystery Play and Supper later on in October, advertised elsewhere in the magazine. Sylvie and I have chosen it together and it’s called ‘Where there’s a will there’s a way’. You don’t need to be much of an expert to guess its the perfect context for a murder and… Read More
