Located in the centre of a large village just outside Exeter, the Exminster congregation serves the local community through village organisations, the use of its premises, and pastoral care. We are pleased to regularly welcome visitors onto the premises, both during services and at other times during the week to our hall at the rear. Exminster Messy Church is an established part of the church.
Since the pandemic, the congregation has been slowly re-growing. During 2024 new faces have been welcomed into the congregation. Our pianist is joined at times by a saxophonist in leading the singing. The church is fitted with a modern audio visual system.

There is a lovely atmosphere at Exminster Messy Church where everyone is friendly and welcoming. We are always pleased to see how much families enjoy their time at Messy Church and look forward to coming. We try to provide the opportunity for families to develop an understanding of the Christian faith through celebrating bible stories, being creative, sharing food, having fun and through our own faith.
A free monthly newsletter is circulated, mainly by email with paper copies for those without internet access. Free daily worship material, The Vine at Home, is available to anyone wishing to receive it. The church has an active walking group, usually at fortnightly intervals, giving an opportunity to meet with others and enjoy some exercise as well as visiting interesting places. Saturday Coffee Mornings are on a monthly basis with good numbers of people dropping in for a chat. A monthly service is held in a home for the elderly in the village.
Our hall, at the rear of the church, benefits from a kitchen and includes toilet facilities for the disabled with ease of access for wheelchairs. It is regularly used by a wide variety of organisations and individuals from Exminster and the surrounding area, including music groups and has a large screen television for presentations.
A garden bench, o the lawn, is for any passers-by to stop and rest a while. To help prevent food waste, the Village Larder is located in the church grounds.
Please come along to see us, if you have the opportunity. (We are near the Post Office at EX6 8BT)
