Welcome to the website for the Priory Church of St. Mary, in the beautiful town of Usk, Monmouthshire. We are an Anglican Church, part of the Church in Wales, and one of 20 churches making up the Heart of Monmouthshire Ministry Area. The Ministry Area website can be found HERE
We are a busy church, contributing to a large number of local activities and projects, as well as having a pattern of varied and inclusive Sunday worship.
I am responsible for the pastoral care of everyone in the Ministry Area, but you will find that a number of local clergy and worship leaders feature in our regular worship pattern.
Please browse this website and see if there is anything that interests you. You don’t have to be a regular worshipper to join in.
If you would like to book a wedding, a blessing of your civil partnership/marriage, or a baptism, please follow this LINK
If you would like a chat with me, the Rev Sally Ingle-Gillis, then please email me on and I will be glad to hear from you.

Holy Matrimony
Getting married in church is personal, meaningful, spiritual and beautiful, just as you want it to be.
A church is so much more than simply a venue for your wedding. Unique and special things become part of your marriage, on the day itself and beyond; so here are some of the reasons to choose one of the beautiful church buildings in the Usk Ministry Area for your wedding.
Baptism
Baptism is one of the two sacraments offered by the Church in Wales and is an important event in the life of both individuals and the local church. Through baptism we are received into the life of the Church.
