Home - St Mary's Church

Welcome

Reverend Godfrey HilliardSt Mary’s is the parish church for Stoke D’Abernon

We welcome everyone to our services and have worship for all ages. We aim to be at the heart of the community offering a place of spiritual, intellectual and emotional refreshment.

We are privileged to worship on an ancient site of great beauty where prayer and praise have been offered for over 1300 years. We seek to follow Jesus Christ in worship and service and we hope that you might join us on our journey into the heart of God.

We hope you will get the chance to visit us soon and find out for yourself why so many people find their Christian home at St Mary’s, where we aim to be an inclusive Church welcoming everyone from everywhere.
