We are a dyamic church in the heart of a growing community in Greenhithe in North Kent.

St Mary's is becoming increasingly cosmopolitan. We have people from different nationalities, children, adults, different church backgrounds or no church background at all.

At St Mary's we actively encourage families to worship and join in fellowship together, recognising that children are a vital part of today's church and we would wish to make them feel welcome.
