Open Churches

Your local church community is here to serve the village community, especially for the most vulnerable in our village communities. So our buildings are open during the week at defined times as Places of Hope for Breathing Space, offering time and space to 'breathe out' the anxieties and pressures you may be experiencing and to 'breathe in' peace and hope in their place that comes by being in the presence of God's love and grace. Time to be still, to come and rest for a while and to pray as you can. The days when the buildings are available for individual prayer and breathing space are as follows:

St Michael's Hartlip	Wednesday 10.30am - 12 noon Every two weeks
St Mary's Newington	Every Wednesday 10am - 12noon
St Mary's Upchurch	'Cuppa n Chat' Every third Wednesday each month
St Mary Magdalene Stockbury	Every Sunday 10am - 5pm
St Margaret's Lower Halstow	Every Thursday morning
All Saints Iwade	1st Wednesday in the month 10am - 12noon

We are committed to ensuring the safety of everyone who enter our buildings. 

Sanitiser is provided for gelling of hands and we ask you to leave Test & Trace contact details.  

The wearing of face coverings for anyone 11 and over is now mandatory when you enter our church buildings. 

Thank you.
