At St. Paul's we are a community of people who are growing in our love for God and our desire to see God at work in our lives and in our community. We are on a journey of discovering just how incredible God is, and enjoy being amazed by His goodness and grace in often surprising and unexpected ways. We aim to have something for everyone, and whether you’re just beginning to wonder if there is a God, or how you might get to know Him better, we hope that you will join us on that journey.




Vicar's Welcome

If you’re looking for God, it’s great that you’re here. At St Paul’s we are a community that has discovered God loves us, and because of that we are a community of people who are committed to following Jesus Christ with the whole of our lives, and committed to loving and serving each other and our wider community. We look for ways to connect to each other in God’s love, and to connect to our community in ways that make a real difference. We believe God wants everyone to know His love, and are discovering that Jesus wants to use us and bless us beyond what we might have thought possible in the past.

We are a community made up of people from many different backgrounds and walks of life, but who share this in common: the pursuit of God’s purposes for our lives. This brings challenge and adventure into our shared life - God doesn’t want to leave us as He’s found us but transform us to increasingly reflect the likeness of Jesus Himself. We find this to be exciting and the goal of our lives.

We would love for you to share in our journey. It doesn’t matter where you have come from: what matters is where you want to be headed to. You’re very welcome to be a part of what we feel God is calling us to be and to do – you’ll see in this website different ways to connect with us. The Alpha Course is great if you are exploring what if following Jesus could be relevant to your life, Sunday gatherings mix both more formal and informal worship, and there are other ways in the week we connect in small groups, as parents, or with different interest groups. At anything you choose to join with us for you’ll be really welcome....

The Archbishop at Guildford CathedralIn his address at Guildford Cathedral titled The Finality of Christ in a Pluralist World, the Archbishop of Canterbury spoke of defending the uniqueness and finality of Christ, and encountering the truth about God and humanity from a moral, political and philosophical perspective.

The Archbishop at Guildford Cathedral The Archbishop at Guildford Cathedral The address highlighted the importance of approaching inter faith dialogue with confidence, but also of learning something new: "If our convictions lead us to believe there is no hope for those outside our own faith or with no faith..." there is a danger of "treating others as if they know nothing, and we have nothing to learn". "Belief in the uniqueness and finality of Christ allows us a generous desire to share and a humble desire to learn".  Listen to the address [31Mb]
